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.

Pour plus de 20 visites,celle-ci était un peu décevante,mon entrée était beaucoup trop vinaigré & le plat de joue très gras & avec peu de saveur,le potage aux betteraves assez ordinaire & la pièce de macreuse raide, mais avec de la saveur.J'aimenais des amis pour une première fois....En espérant que j'ai frappé une mauvaise journée.

Un seul menu végétarien (délicieux risotto d'epautre). On est en 2022, le jour du dépassement (quand la planète a épuisée tout ce qu'elle peut offrir en un an) arrive de plus en plus tôt (en 2022, 28 juillet). Produire de la viande prend trop d'eau & génère trop de GES. C'est maintenant un produit de luxe écologique & devrait être l'exception non la règle.
