Best Restaurants in Canada

"Led by Chef John Horne, Canoe serves unapologetic and elegant Canadian cuisine, the menu being one complex and multi-layered answer to the question, “What is Canadian food?” Horne is curious, friendly, and ambitious in his exploration of this cuisine, utilizing ingredients from around the country—like wild rabbit, cattails, and seabuckthorn—and often naming menu items for their places of origin. His efforts to establish a sense of place extend even beyond the food; his New Year’s menu opened with the phrase “sii.ngaay ’laa,” a common greeting in the First Nations’ Haida language meaning “good day.” canoerestaurant.com" - Food & Wine Editors
