Last week was an exciting time on the Canadian cooking scene, as renowned brand HexClad officially entered the market. To celebrate, the brand threw a party at the Dreyfus, a trendy restaurant in Harbord Village.

Toronto’s movers and shakers gathered to celebrate, with the party starting at 3 p.m. and going late into the evening. Summer drinks and delicious hors d’oeuvres were served throughout as media and VIP guests browsed the brand’s selections and learned more about its offerings from friendly and chatty HexClad representatives, while the DJ spun his upbeat tunes.

HexClad is a premium cookware that is patented and hybrid. It brings together the performance of stainless steel, the durability of cast iron and the convenience of nonstick which, essentially, makes it every cook’s dream. It’s 5 key standout features are: nonstick hybrid technology, exceptional temperature control, easy care (it’s oven and metal utensil safe), easy cleaning (it’s dishwasher safe!) and lasting durability (it features a lifetime warranty). HexClad is most renowned for its pots and pans (Gordon Ramsay swears by them), but they also have an excellent selection of knives and salt-and-pepper grinders. Their Overhaul Bundle for $1,649.99 is the ultimate gift you can give yourself or someone special, as it features a collection of HexClad’s top cookware and knives.

Happy cooking and Bon Appétit!
