About us

With their rigorous climate marked by a distinct seasonal cycle, northern territories are gifted with unique fauna and flora adapted to their extreme reality: game, fresh water fish, wild fruit, forest mushrooms, lichen… inspired by these unique elements, a rising number of chefs are exploring this once neglected exceptional culinary legacy.

In Quebec, Jean-Luc Boulay and Arnaud Marchand, supported by a passionate team, have been standing up to the challenge of inventing quebec inspired northern cuisine since 2012. Connecting the abundant proximity of boreal forests and the exceptional quality of local products, they salvage amidst french techniques to favour a true encounter of flavours. Local, healthy and inventive, the Northern cuisine from Quebec expresses within each bite the very best of our emerging culinary tradition.

Un détail que je veux souligner cependant, j'ai trouvé qu'il manquait de verdure avec la macreuse de boeuf. J'aurais vraiment apprécié un bouquet d'asperges ou quelques choux de Bruxelles dans mon assiette.

Succulent! Différent par sa touche boréal (bouleau, sapin, ...). Un vrai régal. Nos coups de coeur : purée de fèves dans la salade, joue de boeuf & sorbets. Service attentionné

Deuxième visite un peu décevante en comparaison avec la toute première qui nous avait emballée.
Personnel courtois,excellent service mais entrée de tomate extrêmement ordinaire....16,00 $
pour une tranche de tomate pas mûre....la joue de boeuf excellente mais manque d' originalité dans l'accompagnement de légumes. Bonne variété de vin.
Bref prochaine visite à Quebec on passe à autre chose.

Bon service par contre la joue de boeuf braisé était pas assez tendre. La cuisson a fait en sorte que cela était trop difficile à mange
