Chef Mark McEwan is one of Canada’s most celebrated chefs, and a judge on Top Chef Canada. He began his illustrious career as the youngest ever executive chef at Toronto’s upscale Sutton Place Hotel. From here, he opened the groundbreaking North 44, which set a new standard of excellence in Toronto’s culinary landscape. Chef McEwan continued to push dining innovation with the launch of Bymark, winner of the enRoute Award for Canada’s Best New Restaurants and a pioneer in the Toronto Financial District food scene. Never one to rest on his laurels, Chef McEwan then opened the chic ONE Restaurant in the heart of Yorkville.

Driven by the freshest ingredients and influenced by the marketplaces of the world, Chef McEwan next turned his attention to opening McEwan Fine Foods, with a location at The Shops at Don Mills, then at the TD Centre and now at Yonge & Bloor. Most recently, Chef McEwan launched a new online grocery platform at www.mcewanfoods.com where clients can order fresh produce, specialty ingredients, pantry staples and restaurant quality prepared foods with same-day delivery across the GTA. Now, McEwan’s expert team can shop for clients and bring the store to their door.
