The Gordon Ramsay food empire is finally making its way north into Canada! However, while he cites Araxia in Whisler, BC as his favorite restaurant, his first forays into the land of the maple leaf will be on the other side of the country in Toronto. Toronto Life reports that in a talk with George Stroumboulopoulos on The Hour, Ramsay admitted that he will definitely open a restaurant in the city, and has already scouted a couple sites. Unsurprisingly, Ramsay wants to focus on "humble" local and seasonal ingredients, which is certainly in line with Toronto epicurian mentality. This will, however, be months in the making (a year or so) as Ramsay wants "to do it properly" and invest directly.
What it also means is that the T-Dot will see a lot of Ramsay in the future -- he even pointed out how convenient it will be to pop up from New York.
