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.

Première impression, en arrivant vers 19:00, le niveau sonore était à son maximum. Nous avions de la difficulté à nous entendre. Ce n'est malheureusement pas le seul resto qui a ce problème, mais ça nous gâche un peu notre plaisir. C'était la troisième fois que je mangeais à ce resto & c'est la première fois que j'étais déçu. J'avais un morceau de bison, mais j'avoue que j'ai trouvé la pièce de viande plutôt corriace.
Peut-être que je n'ai pas su bien choisir en fonction de mes goûts. Merci

La qualité de la nouriture était excellente. Mais, repas très pauvre en légumes. Nous avons pris la pièce du boucher du jour. On nous a servi une énorme portion de macreuse - trop grosse même pour un homme avec un gros appétit- servi avec un tout petit peu de bettes à cardes & d'énormes frites rectangulaires, qui avaient plus le goût & la texture de gros quartiers de patates rôties que des frites. Pas trop équilibré comme repas. & très peu rafiné comme repas. 33$ avant taxes & pourboires. Nous n'irons plus à ce restaurant.
