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.

J'ai adoré l'expérience gastronomique de Chez Boulay! Cuisine exceptionnelle, à la hauteur de mes souhaits. Belle ambiance. Mon seul bémol est le service un peu trop rapide, sans trop d'attention. Mise en place de base (ex.: serviette en papier), ce type d'établissement devrait être plus rigoureux sur la présentation de la table & un service plus raffiné. Sinon, tout était super! Bravo!

Nous avions un forfait avec repas 3 services. Malheureusement, malgré le prix dispenfieux, le choix de menu que nous avions comportait, à 75%, un surplus monétaire. Il faut donc s'attendre à un coût supplementaire. Nous sommes déçu.

L'accueil & le service étaient parfaits. La cuisine est subtile & excellente. La présentation des plats est juste sublime. Les chefs ne sont pas que des cuisiniers, ce sont des orfèvres. Un des meilleurs restaurants au Canada.
