MONTREAL, Sept. 10,
2024 /CNW/ - The 30 nominees for Air Canada's
Best New Restaurants 2024 were unveiled today, celebrating new
culinary talent across Canada.
Since 2002, Air Canada has championed the country's distinct
culinary scene through the longest running Canadian restaurant
ranking and its signature program, Air Canada's Best New
Restaurants. The 2024 highly anticipated longlist is out today
on CanadasBestNewRestaurants.com.
"We're thrilled to shine a light on Canada's emerging culinary talent through Air
Canada's annual Best New Restaurants list," said Andy Shibata, Vice President, Brand, Air Canada.

offerings from notable openings across the country, all of which
are now contenders for the coveted Top 10 list.
