Join us on Monday, May 6, 2024, for an intimate and exclusive dinner experience while supporting a cause that is important to the Barberian family. 

Harry Barberian was an entrepreneur, a visionary and a family man. He helped shape Toronto’s culinary landscape and played host to everyone from Prime Ministers to movie stars and everyone in between. Harry had a humble beginning and relished the opportunity to give back to anyone in need. His efforts helped launch the careers of hundreds of fellow restaurateurs and aided many artists as they rose to great fame.

In 1986, Harry was treated for cancer by Dr. Jeremy L. Freeman, MD, FRCSC, FACS at Mount Sinai Hospital, part of Sinai Health. The care he received provided him with many additional wonderful years, which were a gift to his family and the city itself. This dinner is a celebration of Harry Barberian and the excellent care he received at Mount Sinai Hospital (MSH).

Mount Sinai Hospital has been able to make significant contributions to cancer research across the globe thanks to the dedicated efforts of not only the medical staff but also the residents, fellows, and junior faculty. By supporting the Department of Otolaryngology—Head & Neck Surgery at Mount Sinai Hospital, you can directly impact those pursuing research and careers in this field. The Harry Barberian Memorial Dinner funds the Barberian/MSH Education and Research Scholarship Fund, which supports education and research initiatives.
