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.

Nestled in a high traffic tourist area yet offers authentic good Quebecor cuisine with super attentive service. Food quality is good & the portion is very generous. Pricing is very reasonable.

J'ai été déçue par le pêcheur (brunch). Le plat & le café sont arrivés tièdes & l'assiette manquait vraiment de goût. Je ne sais pas si c'est le saumon fumé qui n'était pas assez goûteux ou qu'il manquait d'assaisonnement en général... Les carottes qui recouvraient le tout masquaient aussi le goût du saumon.

Restaurant was nice. Food good but don't recommend chicken. Servers were pleasant & helpful. Restaurant tables are crowded together & not as intimate as wanted.
