Mon mari a adoré le pavé de saumon
Ma fille de même pour les côtes levées!
Moi, j'ai bien aimé le boudin mais j'ai trouvé la portion beaucoup trop petite!!!
Au moins une portion & demie & même le double serait préférable!!

Nous avons apprécié l'excellent service de monsieur Alain-98.
Le déjeuner & le café étaient très bons.
De plus, le décor, l'ambiance & l'endroit en font notre Cochon Dingue préféré.

Excellent food & service. Highly recommend this restaurant when you visit beautiful Quebec City you won't be disappointed. The ribs were superb & my wife & returned a few days later for breakfast.. the crepes & waffles were delicious!
A reservation is needed so you're disappointed you don't get a table .
