This season, they’re offering both indoor all-you-can-eat menus with all the trappings ($34 to $43 per person) as well as takeout boxes with Ma Cabane à la Maison; boxes are $145 for four and $290 for eight." - JP Karwacki

The setting evokes snow-laden branches, lumberjacks tapping trees, and classic red-plaid imagery. Founded nearly 40 years ago by Pierre Faucher, the operation still demonstrates traditional syrup collection and processing techniques during guided visits." - Eater Video
