There will also be holiday huts featuring glowing candles, footwear, confectionery treats, wine, and more.

What can I eat at EPOCH’s Holiday market?

As for food, expect holiday specials like Hot Chocolate and Mulled Wine to sip on, Pulled Ham Hock and Pineapple Marmalade Sliders, along with Duck Confit Tourtière, Truffle and Gruyere Grilled Cheese, and Crepes Suzette, to enjoy.

“Food is at the heart of celebration, and our Holiday Market menu draws inspiration from traditional festive flavours elevated with refined presentation,” said Chef Ignatius Prinsloo, Executive Sous Chef, The Ritz-Carlton, Toronto.

“We want our guests to enjoy decadent comfort food in a nostalgic environment that brings people together.”

It’s about $30+ per person, which covers one festive drink and one food item.
