WHO ARE BLONDIES?

Blondies Pizza, the Canadian-founded and owned pizza brand known for its signature pink boxes and New York-style pizza, is continuing its investment and expansion in Toronto with the opening of a new location at 598 Bay St., Toronto, ON, on Thursday, August 20.

Located at Bay and Dundas in the heart of downtown Toronto, steps from Sankofa Square and Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU), the new location brings Blondies to one of the city’s busiest and most dynamic neighbourhoods, serving a community of students, residents, office workers, shoppers and visitors.

Born in Toronto’s Leslieville neighbourhood in 2018, Blondies has grown from a local pizza shop into a recognizable homegrown brand with locations across the Greater Toronto Area. The Bay and Dundas opening shows Blondies’ continued growth and investment in Toronto, creating new jobs and adding another locally operated destination in the downtown core.

“Toronto is home for Blondies, so every new opening here is meaningful to us,” says Mick, CEO of Blondies Pizza. “We chose Bay and Dundas because it’s truly at the heart of the city, steps from Sankofa Square and TMU, with an incredible mix of students, residents, businesses and people coming downtown every day. As a Canadian-founded and owned company, we’re proud to continue investing in Toronto, creating jobs and growing alongside the communities we serve. We’re excited to open our doors, meet our new neighbours and become part of the everyday fabric of this community.”

Community has remained an important part of Blondies’ growth. As the brand grows, each new location isn’t just another storefront —it’s a chance to be part of the neighbourhood. We provide local jobs, serve the people who live and work nearby, and build long-term relationships in the community.

Blondies has developed a loyal following for its combination of classic and signature pizzas made with quality ingredients, its playful personality and instantly recognizable pink branding. Guests can choose from the brand’s signature red and blonde pizzas, build their own pie, and pair their order with Blondies’ popular house-made dipping sauces.

The Bay and Dundas opening marks the latest chapter in Blondies’ growth as the Toronto-born company continues to expand while remaining rooted in the city where it began.

Finally! We get a glimpse of the new Trailer for tiff ’26 selection, CLUB KID!

Directed by: Jordan Firstman
Starring: Jordan Firstman, Cara Delevingne, Diego Calva, Reggie Absolom, Kirby Howell-Baptise, Colleen Camp

A washed-up party promoter is forced to turn his life around when an unexpected visitor arrives.

Behind the larger-than-life persona of one of Hollywood’s most recognizable action stars is a deeply personal story of resilience, adversity and survival.

Premiering October 16, 2026 at 9 p.m. ET on Super Channel Fuse and available On Demand the same day, Dolph: Unbreakable takes viewers inside the life and career of Dolph Lundgren, revealing the man behind decades of global stardom and the personal challenges he faced along the way.

Best known for his iconic roles as Ivan Drago in Rocky IV and He-Man in the original Masters of the Universe, Lundgren has spent more than four decades in the spotlight, appearing in more than 80 films since his motion picture debut in A View to a Kill. Through rare home videos, archival photographs, career footage and intimate interviews, the documentary explores the experiences that shaped him, including childhood trauma, chronic injuries and a battle with cancer, while following his determination to overcome adversity.

Reflecting candidly on the highs and lows of his life and career, Lundgren is joined by friends, family and longtime collaborators including Hollywood icons Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jean-Claude Van Damme. Their personal stories and his own memories offer a fuller picture of the man, the career and the challenges that shaped both.

“Dolph: Unbreakable takes audiences beyond the action hero we think we know to reveal the extraordinary person behind the icon,” says Kim Ball, EVP, Content & Communications, Super Channel. “Dolph Lundgren’s story is one of resilience, strength and the determination to keep moving forward in the face of extraordinary challenges. We’re thrilled to bring this deeply personal film to Canadian audiences.”

Previously selected as part of TIFF 50’s Industry Selects, Dolph: Unbreakable was among 10 standout, audience-ready titles presented to accredited industry professionals during the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival.

The documentary arrives as Lundgren continues to share his story in new ways. On September 22, 2026, Harper Horizon will publish Fights Worth Fighting: Finding Strength in Struggle, Lundgren’s new memoir, in which he reflects on the ambition, hardship, reinvention and endurance that have shaped his life and career, both on and off screen.

Written and directed by Andrew Holmes, Dolph: Unbreakable is produced Adam Scorgie and Shane Fennessey of Canada’s Score G Productions. The film is distributed in Canada by Upstream Flix, which also serves as its U.S. and international sales agent.

As Lai Wah Heen marks one year since its return following a two-year hiatus and extensive renovation, husband-and-wife owners Gary and Ming are guiding the next chapter of a restaurant that has helped shape Cantonese fine dining in Toronto for more than three decades.

Rather than reinventing Lai Wah Heen, Gary and Ming have built on its established identity through a philosophy rooted in the belief that, though traditional, Cantonese cuisine has never been static. Shaped over centuries by trade, migration and cultural exchange, the cuisine has continually absorbed new ingredients and influences while preserving the techniques and principles at its foundation. For Lai Wah Heen, this means continuing that evolution, bringing traditional Cantonese technique into conversation with new ingredients, contemporary ideas and the experiences of a new generation. Today, that philosophy extends across the restaurant. Executive Chef Heyden Sin, Executive Dim Sum Chef Victor Huang and Executive Pastry Chef Ying Long bring contemporary perspectives to Cantonese technique; Oliver Leung draws on the flavours, memories and everyday rituals of Hong Kong for the cocktail program; Beverage and talent director Peony Cen approaches wine through the principles of the Cantonese table.

Central to the culinary program is Dragon Farm in Norfolk County, Ontario, where seeds sourced from China are grown in Canadian soil specifically for Lai Wah Heen’s kitchens. Acquired and developed by Gary in 2020, the pesticide-free farm grows Chinese vegetables, herbs, edible flowers and specialty produce, creating a direct connection between the restaurant’s Cantonese roots and its place in Canada.

Reservations for Lai Wah Heen can be made HERE.

About The Culinary Program

À La Carte
Lai Wah Heen’s culinary program is led by Guangzhou-trained Executive Chef Heyden Sin, who studied under his uncle, Chef Guo Hui Tan, one of Guangzhou’s Top Ten Chefs and an early pioneer of molecular gastronomy in Cantonese fine dining. Sin went on to build his career across luxury hotel kitchens in China and South Korea, including Conrad, Ritz-Carlton and Hilton, before bringing that foundation in traditional Cantonese cooking and contemporary technique to Lai Wah Heen.

Sin’s à la carte menu explores traditional preparations, premium seafood and Canadian proteins alongside ingredients grown specifically for the restaurant at Dragon Farm. San Bei Norway Black Cod ($65) takes its cues from the aromatic three-cup preparation with sesame oil, yellow wine, soy and basil; and Canadian Prime Short Rib ($77) brings together Hong Kong oyster sauce and Cabernet Sauvignon reduction.

Tasting Menu
11 Courses | $180 per person
Sin’s 11-course tasting menu moves through dim sum, seafood, premium proteins and pastry, balancing traditional Cantonese technique with contemporary presentation. Highlights include Koi Fish Dumpling, with scallop and prawn hand-shaped into a delicate koi and served with spinach consommé, and Lobster Har Gow with lobster, prawn and uni.

Chef’s Table
Sin also leads Lai Wah Heen’s Chef’s Table, an intimate, interactive experience inspired by the Cantonese Merchant’s Feast and shaped around the season and the best ingredients available, including produce harvested from Dragon Farm. Dishes are prepared and demonstrated throughout the meal, giving guests a closer look at the ingredients and techniques behind the cuisine.
Dim Sum

Lai Wah Heen’s dim sum program is led by Executive Dim Sum Chef Victor Huang, who brings more than two decades dedicated to the discipline. Huang trained under acclaimed dim sum master Xiao Hong Huang before working alongside Sin under the mentorship of Chef Guo Hui Tan. He later served as Executive Dim Sum Chef at The Shilla Seoul, bringing traditional Cantonese dim sum to one of South Korea’s leading luxury hotels.

Offered à la carte and as part of Lai Wah Heen’s set menus, dim sum balances traditional handwork with premium ingredients and intricate presentation. Highlights include Hokkaido Uni Siu Mai ($32), pairing heritage pork with sea urchin and scallion oil, and Lobster Har Gow ($33), with lobster, green pea and green onion.

Afternoon Tea & Pastry

Executive Pastry Chef Ying Long leads Lai Wah Heen’s pastry program, reimagining traditional flavours through French pastry techniques, Cantonese herbal traditions and seasonal Canadian ingredients. Before becoming a pastry chef, Long worked as a jewellery designer for luxury jeweller Chow Tai Fook, a background that continues to influence her attention to detail, form and presentation.

Lai Wah Heen’s High Tea reinterprets afternoon tea through a Cantonese lens, bringing together dim sum, savoury dishes and pastry Monday through Friday from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Guests can build platters of five to nine selections, with highlights including the Pear-Shaped Crispy Dumpling, Roasted Duck Spring Roll and Lychee Shrimp Balls, alongside Long’s signature Swan Pastry filled with sweet lotus paste.

Beverage Programs

Cocktails

Lai Wah Heen’s new cocktail program was curated by Oliver Leung, co-owner of Suite 115, ranked No. 13 on Canada’s 100 Best Bars 2026, alongside Suite 115 Designer and Senior Bartender Jasmine Zhu. Rooted in the flavours, memories and everyday rituals of Hong Kong, the menu brings together Leung’s culinary approach to cocktails with Zhu’s design-led perspective.

“As someone who grew up in Hong Kong, I don’t see Hong Kong culture as something that needs to be recreated; it is something I carry with me,” says Leung. “These first three cocktails are a celebration of Hong Kong through the things that feel familiar to me. The drinks we grew up with, the condiments on the table, the fruit we ate as children, and the rituals that quietly shaped our idea of home. Just as Cantonese cuisine is deeply rooted in memory, balance, and tradition, these cocktails are an attempt to translate those same ideas into a glass. Each drink takes something unmistakably Hong Kong and gives it a new form, while keeping its original spirit intact. For me, this is what Hong Kong tastes like.”

“As both a designer and a bartender, I see cocktails as a form of design,” says Zhu. “Every decision, from flavour and aroma to texture, glassware, and presentation, is made with intention. I approach each drink the way I would a design project: starting with a concept, refining it through experimentation, and paying close attention to the smallest details. This menu reflects my belief that thoughtful design can be tasted as much as it can be seen.”
Highlights include The 852, combining Hong Kong lemon tea and Ribena and served with an egg tart; Ginger & Scallion, inspired by the condiment traditionally served alongside Cantonese barbecue, poached chicken and steamed fish; and Dragon Eye, a floral, spirit-forward interpretation of longan, a childhood fruit whose name translates to “dragon’s eye.”

Wine

Beverage and Talent Director Peony Cen

Lai Wah Heen’s wine program is led by beverage and talent director Peony Cen, who is WSET Level 3 certified and currently pursuing Level 4. While most of her wine knowledge and experience has been developed through Western fine dining, Cen being a Cantonese sommelier, grounds her approach to wine in the way she was taught to understand food.

“Growing up within Cantonese culture, the dining table was never simply a place to eat. It was where family gathered, where traditions were passed down, and where care was often expressed without words,” says Cen. “Food carried memories. A particular aroma, a bowl of soup, the bitterness of herbal tea, or the flavour of something slowly braised could immediately connect you to a person, a place, or a moment in your life. That understanding of food has become the foundation of how I approach wine. I do not believe Cantonese cuisine needs to be reshaped to accommodate wine. Instead, I ask what wine can learn from Cantonese cuisine.”

Rather than beginning with conventional pairing rules, Cen considers how acidity can lift the richness of roasted meats, minerality can echo the purity of steamed seafood, and mature wines can connect with dried tangerine peel, tea and aged ingredients. For Cen, pairing is about creating “a conversation between two histories,” with a cellar that respects the traditions of wine while being unmistakably informed by the Cantonese table.

Featured selections include the 2023 Domaine du Nozay Sancerre from the Loire Valley, a Sauvignon Blanc with notes of pink grapefruit, lychee, lemon and yellow peach; the 2018 Domaine Michel Arcelain Bourgogne Côte d’Or Pinot Noir, with red-fruit character and soft tannins; and a 2018 Tempranillo Reserva from La Mancha, Spain, with dark berries, vanilla and baking spice layered over smooth, mature oak.

Tea

Lai Wah Heen’s tea program is led by Tea Sommelier Isaac Paluga, who oversees the restaurant’s Chinese tea collection and service, guiding guests through selections chosen for their provenance, character and relationship to the food.
The program explores some of China’s most celebrated tea-growing regions. Jin Jun Mei, made from tender spring buds in Fujian province, is a naturally sweet and aromatic black tea, while Da Hong Pao, from the Wuyi Mountains, is a revered rock oolong known for its roasted complexity. Snow Tibetan Chrysanthemum, grown at high altitude in western China, offers a delicate floral expression. Closer to home, Organic Fig Leaf Tea is grown at Dragon Farm in Ontario and roasted in Lai Wah Heen’s kitchen to develop notes of toasted coconut, vanilla and maple.

Distinctive Spaces
Designed in collaboration with Alfred Wong of Studio CK, Lai Wah Heen’s 6,800-square-foot interior draws inspiration from the elegance of Hong Kong and Shanghai, with jade marble, gold accents, sculptural lighting and warm textures. Beyond the main dining room, the 115-seat restaurant includes four private and semi-private dining spaces.

Sol (曜), the largest, seats up to 25 guests around a round black marble table and includes a private entrance, bar and washroom; Lune (月) seats 12 in an intimate, naturally lit circular room; Silk Road (丝绸之路) seats 14 in a boardroom-style setting with a projection-ready wall; and Starlit (星光) seats 14 in a semi-private space defined by reflective black surfaces and deep red accents.

About Lai Wah Heen
Originally established in 1995, Lai Wah Heen is a Cantonese fine dining restaurant in downtown Toronto, re-imagined under owners Gary and Ming Its culinary philosophy draws on the evolution of Cantonese cuisine through trade, migration and cultural exchange, pairing traditional Cantonese technique with contemporary approaches and Canadian ingredients, including produce grown specifically for the restaurant at Dragon Farm.

Today, BritBox debuted the official trailer for Season 2 of Ludwig, featuring all new cast additions Mark Bonnar, Sian Clifford, Ben Ashenden and Rumi Sutton. The six-episode season premieres on BritBox in North America on October 13, with weekly episodes following until the finale on November 17, 2026.

Picking up from the end of Season 1, master puzzle-setter John ‘Ludwig’ Taylor (David Mitchell) is now a Crime Scene Consultant, working alongside DCI Russell Carter (Dipo Ola), on ‘impossible’ crimes for the Cambridge Police Authority. No longer having to masquerade as his brother, he’s openly more ‘Ludwig’ than ever – brilliant at solving puzzles but hopeless at everything else. But John’s identical twin brother, James, is still missing, and now that he’s an official employee of the station, John is forbidden from using any police resources to look for his brother or uncover exactly what he was investigating. Of course, John won’t stop and neither will Lucy (Anna Maxwell Martin), John’s sister-in-law and wife of his missing brother James. A puzzle needs solving and a husband and father needs bringing home. One masquerade may have ended, but a new one has just begun.

The second season of the acclaimed detective series stars David Mitchell and Anna Maxwell Martin. Season 2 also features new series regulars Mark Bonnar (Dept. Q, Guilt) as newspaper editor Gareth Fisher, Sian Clifford (Fleabag, The Ballad of Wallis Island) as local MP Joanne Kemper, Ben Ashenden (Deep Cover, Black Mirror) as DC Ethan Cole, and Rumi Sutton (After the Flood, Mutiny) as DC Caitlin Sullivan. Stephen Merchant also guest stars this season as Danny Sloane, a cocky snooker champion who is at odds with John in the season’s fourth episode.

Returning cast include Dylan Hughes as Henry Betts-Taylor, Dorothy Atkinson as DCS Carol Shaw, Ralph Ineson as Chief Constable Ziegler, and Karl Pilkington as DI Matt Neville.
