Iron Chef Morimoto to open Toronto restaurant
Iron Chef Morimoto is opening a restaurant in Toronto -- finally. Long rumoured to have his eye on this market, it appears he's settled on a spot in the Theatre Park condo development (224 King St. West) based on information gleaned from Brad Lamb's website.
Urban Toronto reports that the 47-storey development next to the Royal Alexandra Theatre will house a two-level bar, terrace and restaurant - a befitting home for an Iron Chef who was a force to be reckoned with not only on the original Japanese TV series, but also the American spin off.
Chef Masaharu Morimoto already operates restaurants spanning the globe, including locations in Mumbai, New York and Miami. One can expect a slick space given the existing work done by Architects Alliance and II by IV Design. Allez Cuisine!
