Chef Tiffani Faison, the powerhouse behind Big Heart Hospitality, has solidified her status as Boston's homegrown celebrity chef with the expansion of her acclaimed champagne and wine bar Bubble Bath to a stunning second location atop the citizenM hotel in Back Bay.
Faison's Boston restaurant empire now includes Sweet Cheeks Q, Fool's Errand, Tenderoni's, and both Bubble Bath locations, each reflecting her bold personality and commitment to quality. Nationally, food TV fans know her from Top Chef, as a judge on Chopped, and as a Tournament of Champions winner. She's also been named a James Beard Award finalist multiple times.
The new Bubble Bath location offers sweeping views of the city from the citizenM rooftop, creating an elevated experience for champagne lovers and casual diners alike. The space embodies Faison's aesthetic—glamorous but accessible, with impeccable attention to detail.
Despite her busy schedule, Faison remains deeply connected to Boston's food community. She's a regular at local favorites like Taiwan Cafe in Chinatown, where she swears by the Szechuan white fish ('probably one of my favorite dishes in the city'), and Ganko Ittetsu in Brookline for ramen. 'If I'm sitting down for a lunch that isn't a business lunch, it's some kind of soup,' she says.
Faison's success represents a new model for restaurant moguls—one built on authenticity, community connection, and a portfolio that ranges from barbecue to champagne bars. Her Big Heart Hospitality name reflects her philosophy: creating spaces where people feel welcomed and well-fed.
As Boston's dining scene continues to attract national attention, Faison stands as proof that homegrown talent can compete on any stage.
