Under The Sea: An Evening at Ripley’s Aquarium

In December, we were thrilled to have the opportunity to create a discovery themed menu for the Grand Opening of Ripley’s Aquarium Toronto, a new special event space in the heart of downtown Toronto. For this opening, Ripley’s wanted to make quite a splash on the city’s event scene (pun intended), so our own senior event planner, Jake Curl and executive chef Karen O’Connor worked together to achieve their vision. They took guests on an exciting journey of discovery through the aquarium space with a menu that took inspiration from the visual cues of each exhibit.

We love: Summer Barbecues

Let’s talk about summer barbecues! While a BBQ is the quintessential summer get-together for families and friends, it’s also a great setting for corporate functions. Casual and fun, the ambiance is a great match for a day of teambuilding or relaxing and rejuvenating at a corporate retreat. We love hosting barbecues at some of Toronto’s top venues, like Artscape Wychwood Barns, Polson Pier or Miller Lash, among others.

Announcing! Spring and Summer Menus

Winter seems to have morphed into summer in a mere two weeks and we’re thrilled to say good-bye to our Sorels and winter jackets (at least until December). We’ve been celebrating in our kitchens by developing and tasting new menu items that embody the new season and the months ahead. We’ve come up with new hors d’oeuvre, first courses, mains, stations and desserts and hope you’ll be just as excited about them as we are.

Earth Day 2013

Green initiatives lie close to our hearts at Daniel et Daniel and over the years we have been striving to make the footprint of our business as small as possible. For Earth Day we wanted to reflect on some of our sustainability efforts as we feel that committing to environmentally responsible practices is just as important as ensuring great events.
