Where Quetzal’s Steven Molnar Goes in Toronto

"Located on College Street, one of the main arteries of downtown Toronto, Quetzal is a Mexican restaurant created to honor Mexican cuisine and traditions. Steven Molnar, executive chef of the One MICHELIN Star, hopes that the restaurant will educate guests on what modern, fine dining Mexican food is. “I strive to change the general perception surrounding Mexican cuisine by showcasing unique flavor combinations and seasonal products,” Molnar explains. Influenced by Molnar’s background—he's Japanese and Hungarian—the dishes have clear Japanese influences, and are all cooked over a 28-foot wood fire. “It creates a unique dining experience,” Molnar continues. “From the wonderful smell of wood fire and distinct flavors of cooking over wood fire to guests being able to witness everything.”" - Kevin Chau
