Chef Imrun Texeira has worked in some of the world's best and most influential restaurants, including 3 Michelin Starred Noma in Copenhagen. Most recently, he has been named as a recipient of the Top 30-Under-30 Award for hospitality leaders in Canada and as a rising talent in North America by The Art of Plating.
Imrun was a semi-finalist on the Food Network’s Top Chef Canada Season 8 and a finalist on the Food Network’s Chopped Canada Season 3. In 2019, he was a regional finalist in the Hawksworth Young Chef Competition. Chef Texeira was also nominated for the Premier’s Awards: Most Successful Recent Graduate in 2016, which celebrates Ontario’s outstanding college graduates.
Imrun’s culinary style can be defined as 'New Canadian Cuisine' as he showcases local produce, foraged ingredients and blends them with flavours and techniques from around the world. This is a true homage to the ever-evolving multicultural food scene in Canada.
Chef Texeira has also contributed to the Canadian food scene by advocating for better work conditions and mental health support for those in hospitality as an Ambassador for The Burnt Chef Project. He also shares his love and knowledge of food by volunteering with kids and teaching them food literacy.
