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.

Very disappointed the service was very slow, & it wasn't very busy on the restaurant. The food was okay but not a typical French bistro fare that I expected.

Potage aux champignons,'magique'.
Joue de boeuf qui fondait dans la bouche.
Excellent conseil de notre serveur français, très sympathique ; ), qui nous a recommandé un verre de rouge espagnol pour accompagner le tout, un Temprallino je crois…

We had the $30 lunch special with beef cheeks. Everything was fantastic, good service in English. House wine is good value.
