When Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants list was announced in May, it was a Niagara Benchlands kitchen that took the top spot. In Jordan Station, Eric Robertson and Daniel Hadida own and operate Restaurant Pearl Morissette.

| March 21st, 2025Brunch has become more popular – and delicious – than ever. Try these unique recipes from celeb chefs. Photo: Alexander Spatari/Getty ImagesAh, brunch. That weekend activity we all clamour to do with friends and loved ones.
