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.

Definitely one of the fiew that covers all the details. The plates pay tribute to the Boreal forest in Quebec region. The choice in the ingredients reflects that special attention the chef seems to take to have those perfect ones. The mix in tastes they do working with local ingredients (from meat to herbs) is amazing The restaurant itself is wood/kind of fancy forest well made decoration. Everything is clean. The staff is also incredible & happy/proud to work there. Not a tourist trap despite it's location.

We had great expectations for this restaurant which were not met. The food was okay, but the service needs improvement. If, by chance, you do not speak French you're treated disrespectfully; if you try your best with French you're not appreciated you're ignored.
