Who Is Changing The Restaurant Game In Toronto?

We’ve seen some big changes in the city’s food scene over the past few years, and for an industry that is never stagnant it’s been a bit of a whirlwind. But what comes from all that chaos are a lot of new ideas and thought leaders who change the game for the better. Perhaps you know a restaurant founder or entrepreneur that stands out from the crowd because of new ideas they have that could change the culinary world? Then it’s time to put their name forward for Restaurants Hospitality’s 2023 Founders & Entrepreneurs Power List!

This year, the RH Founders & Entrepreneurs Power List will showcase those individuals in the industry that are using their restaurants as platforms to introduce exciting new ideas. These culinary influencers could be leaders from new start-ups or well-established businesses. So much is happening in Toronto, it might be hard to narrow it down.

Nominating was possible until 30th September 2023 by completing the online form and attaching a high-resolution photo.

The 2023 RH Founders & Entrepreneurs Power List will be published later this fall at Restaurant-Hospitality.com
