Chasse-Marée

Some of the Best Food in Canada Is Hiding in Le Bic

"A small tinned-seafood venture founded by an oceanographer and a fisherman on the river’s edge that elevates overlooked local shellfish into gourmet products; its specialty is hand-processed whelks that are steam-cleaned, hand‑shelled and preserved in lobster bisque or a boreal brine. The project aims to broaden appreciation for the St. Lawrence’s lesser-known species and treat the river as a true regional terroir." - Nina Caplan
