Mark Wahlberg's restaurant chain to expand

Actor Mark Wahlberg's burger restaurant Wahlburgers is set to open in Canada next year.

The 42-year-old "Ted" actor launched the burger joint in 2011 with his brothers Donnie and Paul in Hingham, Massachusetts and business is booming, reported E! online.

The new location will open at Toronto's SoHo Metropolitan Hotel.

The brothers are also looking to add more spots in their hometown of Boston, Massachusetts.

Paul Wahlberg, who serves as the executive chef, offers up menu items including the brothers' childhood burger favourites.
