Bourdain chasing on our Quebec trip. Was mildly disappointed by Joe Beef in Montreal, so going into Ketchup I had high hopes that it would deliver & save our trip. & oh my did the team at Ketchup deliver. Walking in it's a very unpretentious spot, very quickly it's obvious the focus is 100% on the food. The menu was explained to the whole restaurant, & you can tell while the waiter was explaining the food they were very proud of it. We had the octopus, sweetbread, boar, halibut, duck, & Queen Elizabeth cake.
I was blown away by the sweetbread. The highlight of the night for me. The other dishes did not disappoint as well. The octopus & boar had very interesting Asian-influenced flavors (lemongrass, star anise etc). The duck personally was slightly under, but that's personal preference.
The Queen Elizabeth cake was a pleasant surprise, first time having it & it's basically just a big piece of sticky nougat (that's a good thing). I would have to disagree with their weapon of choice however, as it was very hard to use a spoon on such a hard dessert.
Anyways, Ketchup is going to be a must visit for me whenever I'm in Quebec. Very reasonable prices as well ($100~ for 3 courses & drink).
Also, bread service was amazing. Soft baguette & really good butter.
We had a wonderful time. The menu selections when we visited all sounded good, & we were definitely happy with our choices.
The atmosphere was really great & we had some wonderful conversations between tables with people we had never previously met.

We have never experienced a restaurant quite like this & are glad we did a quick review before our reservation.
The menu is ever revolving, so you do not know your menu until you arrive.
The space is small, they only do two servings a day, once everyone for your booked serving has arrived & has a drink then you will hear what your options are!
We enjoyed some recommended glasses of wine, as we were not provided with a menu, we just trusted our server would know what to pair with the dishes we ordered, & they did!
The food on the menu & that we ordered was phenomenal. Well worth the almost hour wait from sit down to eating our first dish … so do not arrive hungry!
Cute place. Homey charm. The food is wonderful. The atmosphere was amazing. I was able to go near the kitchen & see the chefs preparing our food. Everything is amazing.
We got a last minute reservation for 6 pm & they were very accomodating to us & our toddler. We sat down & the menu was presented to the whole restaurant by the staff in both French & English. We ordered the asparagus to start & the duck & the halibut for mains. Everything was amazingly delicious & very well-balanced - worth every penny. The restaurant was cozy & relaxed & the staff were friendly & knowledgeable. We highly recommend going here for delicious food & fun vibes. Definitely book in advance!
Small, fun, unpretentious, seriously good food. What I love most about l'Affaire Ketchup is that it's an authentic, absolutely Canadian gem away from the touristy old town. The kitchen delivers amazing dishes from two old household stoves. Which is in & of itself noteworthy. The quality of dishes & the no-frills service makes it amazing. We tried a fresh tomato plate, sweetbreads (a must), asparagus, roasted duck (a little gamey, as is sometimes the case with wild duck), & a veal shoulder served with a gravy that could cause addiction. Missing were the scallops. Halibut was in its place. Bourdain loved it. I do, too.
The entire experience was the height of gastronomic excellence, but served in a warm, friendly & relaxed environment. The menu changes daily but we were blown away by the tomato & burrata, the fresh asparagus, the sweetbreads & the beef shoulder. Definitely the best meal I've had in Quebec. We had the bar table & marvelled that the chef prepared everything on two small electric ovens. Would recommend to anyone wanting a high end culinary treat!
Such a fun & unique dining experience. The menu changes daily but everything we had was absolutely delicious. The service & setting is fun & quirky - but the food is gastronomically masterful. Absolutely superb!
Been here multiple times. Hands down the best resto in QC. Prices are incredible considering the meal u get will be Michelin quality. Aside from the food the experience is what makes this place so unique. The staff makes it feel like you're at your friends place hanging out for dinner. If you're a real foody this is the place to go.
