TORONTO — American Express Canada has launched Platinum Dining Experiences, available exclusively for Platinum card members, to offer a selection of dining events at award-winning restaurants across Canada.
“The American Express Platinum card is becoming the card for an entirely new generation of consumers. More than ever, our premium products are resonating with card members who love experiences and see the value of Amex membership,” says Kim Kuzmak, vice-president of Lifestyle Benefits, Partnerships and Brand at American Express Canada. “Platinum Dining Experiences offers a new way for us to deliver what our card members want within a top passion point.”
The new program complements the existing portfolio of experiences Platinum card members have access to, including reserved tables through the Global Dining Collection, private shopping events, and unique events packages.
“Platinum Dining Experiences is another example of our commitment to Canadian restaurant owners,” adds Kuzmak “This community is made up of hard-working, dedicated business owners who we are proud to partner with to help support their growth.”
To celebrate the launch, American Express Canada will host a two-night preview dinner on March 5 and 6 at Toronto’s Quetzal. The first evening is for media and influencers and the second evening is for invited Platinum card members. The dinner features a chef collaboration with the restaurant’s resident chef Steven Molnar alongside chef Danny Smiles of Montreal’s Le Violon, and chef Mike Robbins of Vancouver’s AnnaLena. Together, the chefs will prepare a nine-course tasting menu paired with wine or a cocktail.
