About

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.

Premièrement, nous avons été un peu déçu du fait que les serviettes de table n'étaient pas en tissu, par conscience environnementale il serait temps d'en avoir. Deuxièmement, nous avons été peu impressionnés du service. En amont, on ne nous a pas communiqué les changements au menu, le serveur ne nous a pas amené les couverts pour nos différents plats. Bref, bonne nourriture, service médiocre.
