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.

Service parfait enrichissant l'expérience. Mesures Covid parfaites. Désolé, selon moi le Chablis n'avait du Chablis que le nom, la note « pierre à fusil » non détectée. Les entrées & plats principaux savoureux mais rien de « wow ». Deux pétoncles seulement ? Étrange...À ce prix j'ai connu mieux.

Très bonne cuisine!
Notre table située près de la cuisine a rendu notre repas un peu moins détendu que nous l'aurions souhaité en raison de la très forte circulation du personnel & du bruit.
Je recommande néanmoins très fortement ce restaurant. La prochaine fois, je demanderai une table plus près des fenêtres de la rue!

La nourriture était excellente mais mon plat principal m'a été servi froid. À 220$ pour le souper, je m'attends à manger chaud au moins...
