My colleague and I had the pleasure of being invited to indulge in one of Toronto’s most unique and luxurious seasonal offerings: A Journey Through Asia, the newest afternoon tea experience at the iconic Shangri-La Toronto. Running from July 3 to August 31, this limited-time experience takes place in the hotel’s stunning lobby — setting the perfect stage for what can only be described as a memorable culinary escape.

After a breathtaking multi-million dollar renovation, Toronto’s iconic Harbour Sixty has officially reopened its doors—ushering in a bold new era for the legendary dining destination. For more than 25 years, Harbour Sixty has set the standard for luxury dining in the city, welcoming celebrities, professional athletes and power players from around the world.

We recently had the pleasure of attending Chef Akira Back’s glitzy, star-studded launch celebration at the Mandarin Oriental in Mayfair, London. The highly anticipated restaurant, Dosa by Akira Back, officially opened its doors last fall, and has already made a remarkable impression on the culinary world — earning a Michelin star just five months after opening.
