NEW YORK – (Sept. 26, 2019) – New York Marriott Marquis, in the heart of Times Square and Broadway’s bustling theater district, is proud to introduce Nigel Boschetti as executive chef. The award-winning chef now directs all culinary operations for the roughly 1.8 million-square-foot hotel, which includes overseeing the sous chefs at each of the property’s four dining outlets; bringing to life signature, flavorful dishes; handling all aspects of food and beverage for groups and events; and ensuring a high-quality service for which New York Marriott Marquis is known.

“We’re thrilled to welcome Chef Boschetti to the New York Marriott Marquis team, as he makes his U.S. culinary debut with nearly 30 years of international industry experience,” said Dan Nadeau, the hotel’s general manager. “Boschetti’s innovative cooking style and strong management expertise will elevate our hotel’s high-volume, yet intimate experiences to an even greater level.”

Since Boschetti’s arrival, New York Marriott Marquis has taken a number of steps to increase its quality culinary experience for guests, such as installing Farmshelf, an indoor farm that grows a number of fresh herbs right in the hotel lobby to be used in specific dishes and cocktails.
