Celebrate An Unforgettable Holiday Season At 1 Hotel Toronto

1 Hotel Toronto, one of Toronto’s top hotels, is celebrating the holiday by bringing together the best local purveyors for an outstanding selection of seasonal offerings. The property will also host 12 Days of Festive, a combination of free and ticketed community events encouraging families and residents to gather together this season.

Festive Feasts

Come Christmas Day and Boxing Day, 1 Kitchen Toronto highlights Canadian suppliers with a festive prix fixe menu. The highly inventive, low-waste menu begins with a delicious chicken liver pate appetizer, followed by a beet and scallop corn toast, and for the main, a savoury beef cheek with honey nut squash, gooseberries and yellow foot chanterelles. To finish off the meal, Chef Jose Matamoros has created an incredible zero-waste carrot cake using the vegetable in three ways to ensure nothing goes to waste.

Inspired Holiday Cocktails

Tis’ the season to sip on winter warmers in the cozy comforts of Flora Lounge. 1 Hotel Toronto’s lush lobby bar, Flora Lounge, invites guests to cozy up at its fireplace and indulge in a limited-edition festive cocktail menu. Cocktails include sweet, savoury and sustainable options such as:

Snow Angel: a reimagined and sustainably made vegan espresso martini with Flor de Caña 12-Year Rum, the first carbon-neutral rum on the market. This take on an espresso martini uses Bluestone Lane coffee, a cardamon star anise simple syrup and chai-infused almond milk foam, which provides a perfectly balanced sweet and spicy cocktail.

Nutcracker: a light and refreshing cocktail using organic eggnog and Flor de Cana 12-year rum shaken to perfection with toasted marshmallow syrup and topped with nutmeg.

Sleigh Away: those looking to satisfy their sweet tooth can indulge in this innovative creation with candy cane-infused Dillon’s vodka with Briottet cacao liqueur, Baileys and a splash of milk. To top it off, whipped cream and a sprinkle of crushed candy cane is added for an extra sweet touch.
