The Miele Experience Centre in Vaughan recently hosted an evening of fine food and conversation in partnership with Canada’s 100 Best. This exclusive culinary event celebrated Chef Danny Smiles - chef and co-owner of Le Violon, recently named Canada’s Best New Restaurant for 2025.
Guests were treated to a live cooking demonstration by Chef Smiles, featuring a dish from Le Violon that showcased the refined flavours that have earned the restaurant national acclaim. The experience continued with an intimate conversation between Danny and Jacob Richler, Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of Canada’s 100 Best, as they explored the intersections of food, culture, and what makes Le Violon a true reflection of Montreal’s vibrant culinary scene.
The evening was further elevated by a signature cocktail created by Hugo Togni of Canada’s Best Bar, alongside curated wine pairings from the Gibson Family Group - a perfect complement to the flavours of the evening.
The Miele Experience Centre continues to be a space for sharing culinary craft and meaningful conversation.
