After a pandemic induced hiatus, a marquee list of Canada’s best restaurants has returned. The list features Canada’s 100 best restaurants and for the first time a Vancouver restaurant has earned the top spot. The rankings were revealed at an event in Toronto on Monday night.
This comes three weeks after the Michelin Guide announced it was heading north of the border with a guide to Toronto. Executive chef at the No. 1 ranked restaurant named Published on Main, Gus Stieffenhofer-Brandson said “we always look at the Michelin Guide, we always look at the San Pellegrino List,”
He explained that “having our own Top 100 list here in Canada, with restaurants that rival a lot of these international restaurants, people have to pay attention to that.” The top 10 restaurants on that list were:
- Published On Main, Vancouver
- Alo, Toronto
- St. Lawrence, Vancouver
- The Restaurant at Pearl Morissette, Jordan Station, Ont.
- Langdon Hall, Cambridge, Ont.
- Vin Mon Lapin, Montreal
- Edulis, Toronto
- Canoe, Toronto
- Boulevard, Vancouver
- River Cafe, Calgary
