Boston College Executive Pastry Chef Tim Fonseca Boston College Executive Pastry Chef Tim Fonseca Boston College Dining is excited to introduce our new executive pastry chef, Tim Fonseca. Tim is excited to join us at BC and has been making an immediate positive impact. He oversees the development, creation, and execution of pastries and desserts for all of our dining locations, athletic events, and catering on campus. Tim joins us after spending the past 16 years as executive pastry chef at one of Boston’s premier luxury hotels, the Four Seasons. Tim has been in the local and even national media spotlight over the years, featured on the Travel Channel’s “Food Paradise” and the Food Network “Best Buffets,” and received various accolades from the Boston Herald, Boston Globe, Providence Journal, Boston Magazine, and Chicago Sun Times. “I’m addicted to the creativity, focus and precision that pastry requires. It appeals to the artistic, free spirited part of me as well as the perfectionist,” Fonseca says. His culinary career started as a child helping out in a friend’s family restaurant. He later attended both Newbury College and Johnson & Wales University with a focus on classic European pastry. Fonseca began his culinary career at the Charles Hotel in Cambridge, where he became an assistant pastry chef at 19 years old and executive pastry chef by age 21. Tim later headed for St. Lucia, West Indies, where he would hold down the executive pastry chef position at Jalousie Plantation Resort & Spa, now Sugar Beach, one of the Caribbean’s most exclusive resorts. When he is not in the kitchen, Tim enjoys singing, writing, and recording music. He has recorded and produced three contemporary R&B soul records, and is a Boston Music awards nominee. Tim’s interests extend to martial arts, where Tim earned his 3rd degree black belt in karate. “After spending most of my career in luxury hotels, I am ready for something completely different. The idea of joining Boston College surrounded by a culture of learning, arts, and athletics seemed like a perfect match for me. I’m looking forward to this new chapter in my life and bringing a whole new twist to desserts on the campus!” says Fonseca. .

  • International Association of Culinary Professionals 26Th Annual Conference April 21-24, 2004 Baltimore, Maryland
    International Association of Culinary Professionals 26th Annual Conference April 21-24, 2004 Baltimore, Maryland General Session “Is Globalization Changing The Way The World Eats?” Speaker: Dr. Tyler Cowen Thank you all, and good morning. Let’s start with slide one. That’s me, the obsessive, and obsessive is the key word here. I’m food obsessive. I have several obsessions actually, but today we talk about food. When I get home, my wife will ask me, “how did it go?”, and my answer will be, “the breakfast was excellent!” So I travel a great deal, I cook a great deal, and I write an on-line dining guide. I’m one of those people who lives to eat. For a long time now, I have been writing about culture, and creativity, and diversity, and now I am writing about food. And my interest in food really stems from my life, and that is from my obsessive nature. I wanted to be going out there, eating in the best places possible. With this attitude every meal counts. But if every meal is going to count, you have to know how to eat. So let’s go to the next slide. I have a theory of food. It’s a fairly simple theory, it’s not perfect, and there are some exceptions. But what makes for great food? Three items: You need competition, experimentation, and pride. Competition – if you are in a strange city, or strange country, and you want to know where to eat, go to the cuisine that is represented by the greatest number of restaurants.
