“Authentic Québécois cooking!”

Pig’s feet stew, game meat pies, and the like — has become an endangered species in this area. But foodies will appreciate the Quebec-style fusion cooking of this high-end restaurant with a laid-back vibe that gives comfort food a modern twist.

Traditional dishes like rabbit stew or bison strip loin steak are jazzed up with local foie gras or poutine, cheese curd with fries and gravy. Sébastien Houle, the restaurant’s young proprietor, cut his culinary teeth as a chef on the yacht of Paul Allen, a cofounder of Microsoft.
