Cora is a Canadian chain of casual restaurants serving breakfast and lunch. Until 2008, the chain was known as Chez Cora déjeuners... in Quebec, and now just Cora elsewhere in Canada. Franchises are located in all provinces.

Chez Cora began in 1987 when Cora Tsouflidou opened a snack bar in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is now a chain of more than 50 franchises in Quebec and 130 across Canada.[2][3][4]

Events

On March 8, 2017, Cora's president, Nicholas Tsouflidis, was kidnapped at gunpoint from his home near Montreal by an unidentified man. Tsouflidis was later found the next day unharmed in Laval.[5]
