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.

Musique trop forte & 2 desserts bien ordinaires : pudding chômeur & crème brûlée: pas à la hauteur de votre réputation. Le personnel avait l'air très nerveux en salle.......bon vin de la région de Sandbanks. Macreuse & pétoncles délicieux

We enjoyed ourselves very much & have already recommended it to a couple of friends in the area. We hope to return some day to Quebec City & we would definitely return for a nice meal. Service was also exceptional.

Our waiter was very good - so knowledgable & answered any questions we had about the meal. I tried the Bison steak & it was cooked perfectly - I could not get over the flavour.
