After spending 17 years on Queen St. West, many changes are coming to The Drake Hotel.
One of them is the appointment of Chef Laura Maxwell, who is now the executive chef.
“We’re so excited to have her join the fam, not only for her experience and incredible leadership, but also for her sharp knife skills, creativity, and passion for using locally sourced, naturally cultivated, and sustainable ingredients,” reads a recent post on The Drake’s Instagram account, which is also now a brand new social media handle.
Chef Maxwell has already posted a series of sneak peeks at what could be coming to The Drake this summer via her personal Instagram account.
