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.

Sur le service rien a dire j'ai trouvé ca exceptionnel surtout dans une période ou le service se perds beaucoup, un grand merci a notre serveuse pour son travail de qualité vraiment. Sur la cuisine, c'était trés bon mais pas exceptionnel. Déçu par le dessert le vacherin cassis & glace au miel qui manquait de douceur & d'équilibre a la dégustation, le cassis emportant malheureusement tout rendant le tout acide & légerement amer. Petit bémol dans mon plat sur le pop corn dans le cavatelli qui n'apporte aucune valeur ajouté. Je trouve que cela aurait été meilleur sans & plus fondant a chaque bouchée. Encore une fois cela reste trés bon mais vu le prix des bons restaurants aujourd'hui j'en attends un peu plus.
