Biography

Internationally recognized chef and personality Matty Matheson has been breaking barriers since his cooking debut. His expansive career has brought many opportunities to the chef, restaurateur, cookware and clothing co-creator, author of back to back New York Times bestselling cookbooks, Matty Matheson: A Cookbook and Home Style Cookery) and television personality; including features on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Late Night with Seth Meyers, GQ, Rachel Ray, Forbes, Bon Appetit, Playboy and more.

Born and raised in Canada, Matty came to the world of cooking when he entered the culinary program at Humber College. While he left the school just prior to graduating, the skills he gleaned there quickly landed him in Toronto’s vibrant culinary scene, where he rose through the ranks to become one of the city’s most celebrated and recognizable chefs. After years of helming the cult Toronto restaurant Parts & Labour, Matty left the restaurant in 2016 to focus on writing Matty Matheson: A Cookbook and opening his own establishments.

2019 saw Matty strike new ground, entering the world of live events in the form of his own food and music festival, Mattyfest. Taking place at RBC Echo Beach in Toronto, the event was host to a food program of two dozen favorite restaurants and two stages of internationally renowned musical acts headlined by Wu-Tang Clan, all curated by Matty himself.

His cooking show Just A Dash, his first since Dead Set On Life and It’s Suppertime! with Viceland, finds him back in the kitchen doing what he does best — breaking down the barriers that often prevent people from feeling confident in their own home. This authentic and unscripted take on home cooking, as well as, the second season of Just A Dash, is already proving a massive success for Matty with every episode on the cusp of half a million views (or over) and over a quarter million YouTube. The success of both series reinforces Matty being a heavyweight in the YouTube ecosystem, where his videos collectively have amassed in excess of 100 million views.

His accomplishments have built a strong foundation and he won’t be stopping anytime soon; be sure to look out for new restaurants, clothing experiences and the ever-evolving expansion of the Matty brand in 2021.
