The Pine is a Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant in Creemore, Ontario, Canada.[3]
The restaurant originally opened in Collingwood in August 2020, before relocating to Creemore in spring 2024.[2] Both municipalities are situated in Ontario's Simcoe County, part of the northern Greater Toronto Area. The restaurant is owned by husband-and-wife duo Jeremy and Cassie Austin.[2] Jeremy serves as the head chef, while Cassie acts as the general manager.[2]
The business first opened amid indoor dining restrictions in Ontario during the COVID-19 pandemic, operating as a 12-seat pop-up restaurant at an outdoor harvest table.[2] The business's name, The Pine, originates from the pop-up location surrounded by pine forest.[2]
Concept
The Pine offers a 17 course tasting menu and wine pairing.[2] It sources most of its ingredients from local producers across Simcoe Region and Central Ontario.[2]
Although Jeremy Austin is not of Chinese origin, his culinary techniques and the restaurant's dishes are influenced by his years of experience working in China and Hong Kong.[1]
