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.

We had a lovely evening at Chez Boulay-bistro boréal. Our meal was delicious - the scallops were divine! - & the atmosphere was wonderful & relaxing. We had THE most attentive server, Marie, who was lively & engaging, provided excellent recommendations, & checked on us throughout the evening without being overly intrusive, making our visit very comfortable. When Marie discovered we were celebrating our wedding anniversary, our dessert arrived accompanied by a sparkler. Mille mercis! This attention to detail, including the lovely meal we enjoyed, made it a memorable evening. We highly recommend visiting Chez Boulay-bistro boréal.
