The interior of the restaurant itself is a lovely mix of modern, clean white walls and gleaming wood floors and ornately carved, painted wooden panels that evoke the luxury of an early 19th century Syrian home. Sumptuous and rich but modern and airy at the same time, soaring windows flood the room with bright sunlight, prompting a handful of diners to don their sunglasses indoors but I am okay with that during the cold of February. I am curious about how they deal with that in mid August but, for now, I love it.
Chef Mark McEwan and Chef de Cuisine John Kovac have taken the reigns at Diwan, the beautiful restaurant housed inside the Aga Khan museum here in North Toronto. In fact, Mr McEwan is responsible for all of the food and drink at the museum, including catering.
