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.

Hier soir était ma première visite chez Boulay & ce fut A1 de l'accueil à la sortie. & que dire de la nourriture? Totalement décadent!!! Je leur accorde le maximum d'étoiles pour la mise en valeur des produits issus de la forêt boréale.

Nous avons passé une soirée fort agréable. Les procédures d'entrée se sont bien déroulées & l'organisation des tables était très appropriée. Nous avons reçu un excellent service en plus de se régaler de l'entrée au dessert! Comme première sortie au resto en zone orange, nous sommes comblés. Merci à toute l'équipe.
