A NEW DIRECTION FOR CANADA’S 100 BEST

This from the desk of @jacobrichler, Editor in Chief of the annual Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants list, which will look a little different this year.

In a recent guest post in @menumagca, Richler writes that this compilation of the country’s best will eschew the usual ranking format and instead be a list of 100 things (and people) to celebrate in our Canadian restaurant industry right now.

“There are many good industry stories everywhere — from sensational, category-defining takeout programs to meal kits that enable inadequate home cooks to feel like they’re poised and ready to join the line at Maison Boulud.” He writes.

“There are chefs and restaurateurs turned campaigners for social justice in the industry, and others using their restaurants as grocery stores, just to keep their old suppliers in business for a happier future when business returns to something resembling normal. All these stories of industry resilience and resourcefulness are worth celebrating.”
