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.

Belle qualité de produits. Belle présentation des plats. Service hors pair. Le seul bémol serait la carte des vins qui est restreinte & composée de produits peu connus

C'est toujours un grand plaisir & une experience remarquable que de manger "Chez Boulay". Tous les plats choisis furent exquis. Mention spéciale pour l'entrée de pétoncles & le dessert à la framboise. Des délices!! Le service fut très attentionné & exceptionnel dans les circonstances actuelles. Nous attendons avec impatience le retour des brunchs.

Tout était délicieux, l'agneau copieux & savoureux, les pétoncles en entrée divins & tout aussi délectables. Le repas de pétoncles bien qu'excellent nous a un peu déçu car deux pétoncles pour un repas ce n'était pas suffisant, l'entrée était plus copieuse !!!
