A world-famous chef with Michelin nods to boot is gearing up to open an opulent new restaurant in Toronto.
Opening on the ninth floor of Yonge and Bloor's opulent W Hotel early this October is TONO by Akira Back, the latest Toronto venture for the world-renowned chef.
In 2017, Back's now-shuttered concept Dosa, in Seoul, earned a Michelin star, while the Paris location of Akira Back maintains a Michelin recommendation.
All of this to say, Akira Back is kind of a big deal, and he's about to debut a new concept in Toronto.
TONO by Akira Back is located at the W Hotel, 90 Bloor St. E.
