"In a contemporary setting characterized by clean lines, Elliot Beaudoin—once a finalist of TV's Les Chefs! and former associate of the restaurant Tanière³—serves up a cuisine that is rooted inQuébec's terroirs. This establishment sets itself apart with its strictly locavore approach, which sees it using only local ingredients and eschewing exotic ingredients such as chocolate, pepper, citrus fruit, and vanilla. The menu celebrates little-known indigenous ingredients, which are put to clever and creative use. Each dish is thoughtfully composed, demonstrating the chef's keen sensibility in putting the elements together: butter-fried halibut coated in vegetable charcoal, accompanied by a white butter sauce with fermented cherries; venison heart, marinated and then smoked, placed on a delicate tartlet and served with emulsified and candied shiitake mushrooms. The remarkably tender bison hanger steak is elevated by a boreal spice broth and fresh gremolata. Excellent wine list, including nice wine pairings. A legend indeed!" - Michelin Inspector
