French in Toronto with Chef JC Dupoire

I first met Chef JC Dupoire at his restaurant on a rainy July day. My camera guy Rob and I arrived to film him for an upcoming Chef documentary. He's already a famed Chef but we wanted to bring him to centre stage, in video form.

Oddly enough, in a city filled with unique restaurants, finding a great French restaurant has always been a tricky adventure.

Not anymore.

Chef JC has taken his years of experience, including several years at the famed Fairmont Royal York hotel in downtown Toronto and opened up his own joint.The result is Loire, a restaurant that celebrates French cuisine and puts a modern, yet local Canadian twist to it.

Everybody meet or re-introduce yourself to legendary Chef JC Dupoire at Loire.
