We enjoyed this restaurant thoroughly on our visit to Quebec City. So much so we visited more than once! For breakfast recommend the seafood eggs Benedict, it's served on a seafood cake! Hot chocolate was delicious & came with a sugar salt rim, an interesting combo For lunch we enjoyed the seafood pot & pot, similar to a seafood pot pie for Americans, & the Philly cheese sandwich. Service was friendly & attentive.

Pour un européen, c'est correct tant sur le prix que la qualité... ils proposent des plats assez light...& c'est assez calme

Malheureusement, ce n'est plus le Cochon Dingue d'avant. C'était un incontournable, quand je venais à Québec. Maintenant, c'est bien, mais sans plus. Dommage.
