Toronto’s favourite gastronomic celebration is about to begin. Winterlicious, now in its 7th mouth watering year is taking place from January 30th – February 12th.

This spectacular dining event features spectacular 3-course meals at over 150 of Toronto’s best restaurants. They each offer a prix fixe lunch or dinner. This means that the menus are pre-set with first course, main course, and dessert selections. You will have the extreme difficulty of trying to choose only one dish from each course. Prix Fixe lunches are offered at $15, $20, or $30 dollars while dinners are $25, $35, or $45 dollars. These amazing prices are per person. Beverages, taxes and gratuities are extra. It is expected that you will leave a 15 – 20% tip and some restaurants may automatically add a gratuity to your bill, depending on the size of your party.

Reservations are recommended. Participating restaurants will start accepting reservations on January 15th. However if you have an American Express credit card you can make your reservations on January 13th and January 14th. Restaurants including Auberge du Pommier, Courtyard Café, Sassafraz, Canoe, EPIC, and Truffles can be fully reserved in no time flat. Here is the complete list of participating restaurants. The menus are also posted, although they are subject to change.

In addition to this dining extravaganza, Winterlicious is featuring 12 spectacular culinary events – dining experiences, cooking classes, food and wine pairings – led by some of Toronto’s most celebrated chefs and wine experts. Tickets are now on sale. Reserve early as space is limited at each event. Here is the complete list of the 12 events.
