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.

Dommage car notre souper avait bien débuté avec des entrées sublimes. Au niveau du plat principal j'ai été déçu, trop de bouffe & manque d'équilibre dans les saveurs. Tout goûtait la même chose.

C'est notre restaurant préféré à Québec & si non, le meilleur au Canada. De plus, le service est exceptionnel & à très peu coût pour cette expérience.

La cuisine & le service étaient beaucoup moins bons que la dernière fois où j'y suis allée. Le plateau de charcuterie n'était pas appétissant & les plats principaux étaient tièdes & un peu tous genre gibelotte d'ingrédients amalgamés sans finesse. On n'a pas changé nos couverts après l'entrée . Bref une expérience décevante pour un restaurant de cette réputation.

Plat certes originaux mais manquant de saveurs. Je n'ai pas été convaincue par le foie gras en entree ni par le poisson.
