Mindful Voices
New for 2026, the Mindful Voices platform brings together inspirational voices from across the hospitality industry – an editorial space where chefs, hoteliers, and winemakers can share their stories and pioneering practices, both with one another and the rest of the world.
“Mindful Voices will give a platform to all those who are rewriting the rules in their respective fields,” said Gwendal Poullennec, International Director of the MICHELIN Guide. “This new framework draws directly from what our Inspection teams witness firsthand: encounters and experiences that are transforming how things are done and that deserve to be shared. Staying true to its identity and values, the MICHELIN Guide will amplify and give full resonance to these voices from the worlds of gastronomy, hospitality and wine so that they can be heard, wherever they may be.”
During this year's ceremony, Chefs Aldo Camarena and Ashley McKay from Antylia in Toronto were both welcomed onstage as new Mindful Voices for this year's Toronto & Region edition. These chefs take great pride in cultivating relationships with local farmers and Indigenous growers to highlight their ingredients across the restaurant’s menu.

The restaurants join the MICHELIN Guide selection of hotels, which features the most unique and exciting places to stay in Toronto & Region and throughout the world. Each hotel in the selection has been chosen by MICHELIN Guide experts for its extraordinary style, service and personality — with options for all budgets — and each can be booked directly through the MICHELIN Guide website and app. The selection for Toronto & Region features the Hazelton Hotel Toronto (Two MICHELIN Keys) with luxe interiors and high design, the Ace Hotel Toronto (One MICHELIN Key) for its vintage inspiration and inviting public spaces, and the Kimpton Saint George, with a convenient downtown location full of warmth and personality.
The MICHELIN Guide is a benchmark in gastronomy. Now it’s setting a new standard for hotels. Visit the MICHELIN Guide website, or download the free app for iOS and Android, to discover every restaurant in the selection and book an unforgettable hotel.
