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.

Ce n'est plus ce que c'était, trop de sauce qui camoufle le goût des aliments (entrée thon rouge 25$ ...) nous sommes arrivés 15 min à l'avance de notre réservation mais on nous a refusé l'entrée sous prétexte que les serveurs n'étaient pas tous arrivés, je comprends mais on aurait pu nous proposer de prendre un verre au bar en attendant. Les tables sont serrées, trop près l'une des autres. Pour le prix du repas, je suis certaine que je peux trouver mieux à Qc. Service courtois mais un peu expéditif.

Nous avons dégusté la joue de boeuf, merveilleusement bonne ,le seule bémol, nous avons constaté le manque diversifié de légumes, ex: avec les carottes il y aurait pu avoir des brocolis, ou choux de Bruxelles, & accompagné pour finaliser l'assiette une pomme de terre, soit en purée ou au four. Bonne journée.
