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.

Nous avons pris un repas avec une bouteille de vin assez dispendieuse pour ce faire laisser une facture papier en fin de repas sans geste d'appreciation de la part du serveur...Nous avons été dessus du service & nos attentes était beaucoup plus grande pour ce genre de restaurant. Nous avons fait dans le même weekend plusieurs restaurant dont 2 resemblant à Boulay & la dermarcation des 2 autres restaurant était assez évidente au niveau du service.

Expérience pas à la hauteur de nos attentes niveau culinaire! Tartare de bison en entrée.. une bouette dans l'assiette, ne tient pas du tout! Entrée de crevettes nordiques, seulement 5 crevettes dans l'assiette & le flétan en plat principal.. rempli de sauce hollandaise, on ne goûte pas du tout le poisson, il aurait dû être servi sur la sauce & non le contraire!
