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.

Tout était parfait du choix de bières, vins au verre & plats! Dommage que nous n'ayons pas gouté aux desserts, plus faim....De plus, très bonne musique, pas trop forte. Ce qui n'est pas toujours le cas ailleurs.....

L'accueil a été chaleureux & le personnel s'est occupé de nous tout au long du repas! Le repas était délicieux surtout les pétoncles & moules fumées, la macreuse de bison & le dessert de ganache au chocolat & sapin avec mousse caramel salé! J'ai aimé découvrir de nouveaux ingrédients qu'on retrouve dans la cuisine boréale & qui ne sont pas incorporés dans notre alimentation habituel. De belles découvertes & une expérience gastronomique à la hauteur de mes attentes! Je recommande fortement!
