Canadian Chef Rob Feenie will bring his Cactus Club Café chain of restaurants to Ontario next year with its first location at First Canadian Place, Canada's tallest skyscraper and headquarters of BMO Bank of Montreal. Feenie hopes his "West Coast casual fine dining" will be a hit in Hogtown.

“The restaurant industry in Ontario, and particularly in Toronto, is a discerning one," says Cactus Restaurants president and founder Richard Jaffray, "and we look forward to introducing them to our concept of upscale yet informal dining.”

The Cactus menu focuses on local, sustainable ingredents. The chain already has 22 locations in British Columbia and Alberta.

Feenie is perhaps most famous for being the first Canadian chef to appear on Iron Chef America where he defeated demigod Masaharu Morimoto in "Battle Crab" — so you know the man's got chops.
