Chop - Steak, Fish and Bar Introduces Fine Casual Dining to Edmonton

Calgary, AB (PRWeb) December 14, 2006 -- Moxie's Classic Grill is proud and pleased to announce the opening of Chop - Steak, Fish and Bar in Edmonton. On Tuesday, December 12, Moxie's President, Laurids Skaarup and top executives will be visiting Edmonton for the unveiling of Chop, the newest concept for this restaurant group and the first location for this fine casual steak house. Chop is a unique and contemporary steak house that brings together the elements that discerning guests like about fine dining - exceptional food, a notable wine list, quality spirits and service, combined with the energy level and value of casual dining.

"At Chop everything is prepared from scratch daily. This means everything from fresh artisan breads to house made ice cream," says President Laurids Skaarup "Chop offers a menu that appeals to the most discriminating guests. At the heart of our menu offerings are the finest ingredients, including choice primal cuts of beef, fresh seafood and an array of sides and presentations that showcase our creativity and commitment to the highest levels of quality."

Chop employs its own design team showcasing the company's long standing interest and talent in architecture and interior design. The design for Chop's room is inspired by classic steakhouses yet transformed by a modern design, using only quality authentic finishes such as imported Italian leather upholstery, slate and rich wood. "Chop will set a standard in the industry for design. Completely appropriate for a fine casual experience given that today's marketplace is not only the most food savvy in history, but they are also the most design savvy in history," Skaarup notes.

For additional information on the subject of this release, contact Sue Doherty, Creative Director of Moxie's Classic Grill, or visit the Chop company website at www.chop.ca. The Chop chain will continue to expand in 2007 with the announcement of location openings in other major Canadian centers upcoming.

Founded in Calgary in 1986, Moxie's Classic Grill is owned and operated by Northland Properties Co., a Canadian company, which also owns Sandman Hotels, Inns and Suites. With Moxie's Home Office based in Calgary, there are currently 49 Moxie's Classic Grill restaurants and six Shark Clubs, an upscale sports bar, across Canada and growing. Chop is the newest concept for this restaurant group. The Moxie's group is both an Alberta and a Canadian success story with sales exceeding $185 million forecasted for 2006.
