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.

Went for brunch & had the most delicious trout dish with a sunflower pesto. One of my favorite things I ate on my trip to QC. The meal came with coffee & bread. Service was delightful & the atmosphere was perfect for a nice relaxed brunch. Couldn't recommend it enough!

Superbe brunch! Les assiettes étaient savoureuses, bien présentées & pleines de belles saveurs boréales. Le service était chaleureux & attentionné du début à la fin. Une ambiance agréable & des plats originaux qui sortent du brunch traditionnel. Je recommande vivement!

La cuisine est excellente mais le service est décevant. J'avais quand même des attentes considérant la réputation des lieux.
Le serveur n'était pas sympathique & chaleureux.
On nous a proposé le mimosa comme choix de breuvage sans se faire préciser qu'il y avait plusieurs variantes de mimosas. Quand nous avons demandé de changer, la réponse a été'ils sont déjà prêts'.
J'hésitais sur mon choix de plat & le serveur semblait impatient que je me décide alors que nous étions peut-être 4-5 tables maximum dans le restaurant.
J'ai finalement choisi une entrée avec un croissant & je me suis fait dire'comme vous ne prenez pas le menu brunch, l'entrée sera plus chère, en fait elle sera le double'. Je peux comprendre mais mon chum avait pris le menu brunch lui...en tk...c'est surtout le ton désagréable employé que je n'ai pas aimé.
Bref...c'est délicieux mais le service ne rend pas hommage à la qualité de la cuisine, je n'y retournerai pas

Meilleur resto pour bruncher à Québec.

Un resto qui mérite ses étoiles & la reconnaissance par le guide Michelin. Les brunchs sont bons mais on préfère y manger le soir pour sa fameuse soupe à l'oignon & ses plats toujours aussi surprenants pour les papilles. Service toujours impeccable.

My family enjoyed brunch here twice during our visit to Quebec City because we enjoyed it so much, & would love to visit again for dinner! Everything was delicious without being too high brow to actually be enjoyable. - We actually had our small kiddo with us & he loved everything as much as we did. The highlights were the trout brunch dish & the foia gras appetizer. We also really loved the little juices & sweets to accompany the meal, which made it feel special. As a side note, we visited their sister shop to grab pastries one morning & those were amazing too!

Had brunch there & ordered Le Pêcheur. It was very nicely made & quite tasty!
I never had a beer mimosa before, but that was good too!
