Lapin Sauté - Poutine with pulled rabbit

Lapin Sauté

Our first meal in QC. And it was memorable in all the best ways…read more Located in the lower part of the city in the midst of all of the tourist shops, you could easily miss this gem. Great atmosphere (we opted for indoor seating since it was rather warm out), excellent service, and food that was easily some of the best we had during our weeklong stay in the city. Definitely try the rabbit. There are a few variations available. We had the Tourte Lapin and the Rable de Lapin along with a fondue to share. Also, some great local beers and a rose cidre to quench our thirst.

A Delicious Lunch in the Heart of Old Québec…read more We stopped into Lapin Sauté for lunch following a wonderful walking tour of Old Québec, and it proved to be the perfect place to relax and enjoy a memorable meal. Both of us opted for the table d'hôte menu, which included an appetizer, main course, dessert, and tea or coffee. We happily paid the small supplement to begin with the Duck Foie Gras served with strawberry-rhubarb jam and brioche--a decision we did not regret for a second. The foie gras was rich and silky, while the sweet-tart jam provided a beautiful contrast. For our entrées, I chose the Pulled Rabbit Poutine with devil's sauce. Comfort food elevated to another level, it was hearty, flavorful, and utterly satisfying. My dining partner selected the Cassoulet with duck sausage and duck leg confit. While the duck was excellent, it was the beans that stole the show--perfectly cooked, deeply flavored, and exactly what a great cassoulet should be. We finished with desserts: a traditional Far Breton for me and a beautifully executed Crème Brûlée for my dining partner. Both were wonderful endings to an already excellent meal. The service was warm and attentive, the ambiance charming and inviting, and the food delicious from beginning to end. Located in the heart of Old Québec, Lapin Sauté is exactly the kind of restaurant travelers hope to discover--authentic, welcoming, and serving food that leaves a lasting impression. Highly recommended, and we would gladly return on our next visit to Québec City.

Yesterday morning, before our flight back to Phoenix, we walked from the Hilton Quebec to Le Hobbit…read morefor breakfast. It was absolutely amazing. My wife ordered the Eggs Benedict (with ingredients I did not know), and I had the Big (2 egg) breakfast. My wife also ordered a side of breakfast potatoes (my breakfast came with the potatoes). Again, it was absolutely amazing. If you want breakfast, and are nearby, I cannot say just how much we enjoyed it. It could not have been better.

I went here with my sweetheart the other night on the recommendation of a friend and the Michelin…read moreguide. We were disappointed truthfully. The service was lovely. We cannot complain about that. Our server was friendly and very charming. The meal was beautifully paced. The restaurant itself is very noisy. The food itself was disappointing. On the recommendation of our server we started with the carrot doughnut. The doughnut itself was lost under a mountain of ricotta. I would not have known that it was carrot, except that she had told us. We ordered two other starters : I ordered the foie gras pate and my boyfriend ordered the fried oysters. The pate was served on a small layer of sunflower butter, which was unnecessary. The pate itself was surprisingly flavorless. Homemade bread and blueberry jam served alongside was quite good. The fried oysters were completely drowned in buffalo sauce, another green sauce and "blue cheese foam". I would not have even known they were oysters. They were served underneath some cucumbers and peppers and lettuce. For our main course, we shared the blood pudding, which, despite the crazy number of ingredients actually was delicious. It was the best thing we ate. It was served with homemade bacon, a roasted artichoke heart, and some mussels croquettes. Seriously a lot going on. For dessert we ordered the spiced orchard dacquoise. Another complex, and I thought overly complicated dish, that my boyfriend felt worked well. It was presented nicely, and I remembered to get a picture of it. All in all, it seemed like there's just way too much going on in each dish and no particular flavor stands out. Two of the dishes, the fried oysters and the carrot doughnut were just sloppy and smothered. The boudin and the dessert were both beautifully plated, and the flavors worked better as well. The foie gras appetizer was unfortunately bland, and the main ingredient did not shine. Maybe it was an off night? Maybe we didn't order the best things? Evidently, they're doing something right because they've been going for 50 years, but we just didn't see that.

Small, fun, unpretentious, seriously good food. This was my second visit, and what I love most…read moreabout l'Affaire Ketchup is that it's an authentic, absolutely Canadian gem away from the touristy old town. The kitchen delivers amazing dishes from two old household stoves. Which is in and of itself noteworthy. The quality of dishes and the no-frills service makes it amazing. We tried a fresh tomato plate, sweetbreads (a must), asparagus, roasted duck (a little gamey, as is sometimes the case with wild duck), and a veal shoulder served with a gravy that could cause addiction. Missing were the scallops. Halibut was in its place. Bourdain loved it. I do, too. Only 8 tables. Book early.

Brilliance cooked on two home ranges. The service was funny yet incisive, the atmosphere is…read morecompletely relaxed, and the food... oh dear Lord, the food. The sweetbreads are a must, the duck was absolutely genius, and the seafood main was off the charts good. I don't know if there are any better restaurants in Quebec City, but I guarantee you no one was having more fun than we were. This is exactly the kind of fine dining that makes me come back again and again. Great atmosphere, playful attitudes, and genius on plates. My better half and I seriously discussed whether or not we should retire to Quebec City just do that we can enjoy this brilliance more often. WOW.

Food was excellent though a bit over priced for the portions but it has a Michelin honor so i can…read moresee the pricing. Great wine list, especially the champagne. Service people extremely knowledgeable about the food and the wine. Never have i had someone know intimitely about the wines i was deciding on and that really impressed me. All the food was prepared with precision. It was all perfect. We had oysters with a tomato ice of sorts and i really loved this. It was surprising simple and delicious. I will try to make at home. A dirty martini paired perfectly with it. Comte flan with morels rich and strikingly complimentary to the flan. Fried mushrooms in a type of rice flour tempura (maybe?) were good with the sauce. Looked like the sauce would be spicy but it was not. The star, though, was the beef tongue. If you are eating at this restaurant you probably already eat, and love, organ meats. If not, now is your chance because this is the tastiest, most tender piece of meat we've ever eaten. In a demi-glace sauce that was perfect. The pork belly and lobster was so good we ate it even though we were getting pretty full. Just so delicious, and, again, both lobster and pork so perfectly cooked and a perfectly made sauce as well. So we were so full after that we....... OF course we had dessert! All 3 items. A crueller with creme (anglaise?) sauce, a baked Alaska and a creme brulee with a few candied orange zests. I wish there were more zests! Just fab with that brulee. All 3 were fabulous but the creme brulee was my fave. All in all a great experience we won't forget and hopefully will return to at a later date.

The ambience is great, exposed kitchen to see the masters at work, both low and high top seating…read moreoptions....and tastefully decorated. The food was absolutely delicious, I had "the fish of the day" (halibut) and my wife had the pasta w/meat sauce option. My fish had the perfect skin on paired with veggies and pine nuts. Both the cocktails we selected were well balanced and matched what we wanted. As for the service, this is where they lost a star. The staff were helpful and courteous, but I made a specific note for this reservation, clearly telling them that my wife and I were celebrating our wedding anniversary (it was the actual day of), there was no acknowledgment of any kind. This is probably due to a lack of communication between host and wait staff. (The night before we visited another restaurant that was not on the Michelin guide. They give us a dessert, that was not even on the menu, for free and a personalized card signed by the staff congratulating us on our anniversary)

La Girolle. What a place to feast yourself. This spot in Quebec is where you come to congratulate…read morelife on food. La Girolle welcomes you with a vintage look and drags you in with one of the best services I have ever experienced in Canada. Then, a server will deliver an ode to the menu and recite each dish like a bard revealing the tales of the Chef and his staff. Deciding on what you will eat after the waiter's epic monologue becomes like a life decision. The Hurt Locker has nothing against this menu. The duck, the seafood, the crème brûlée. Wow. I do not believe in the line of judges where every single one pulls up a 10 after an Olympic performance. La Girolle is the exception. They are Olympians of food and service. J'ai hâte de trouver une excuse pour me rendre à Québec et célébrer quelque chose à cet endroit. C'est comme ouvrir une bouteille de champagne.

My Partner says "I would give them a six if they had one"…read more First of all. They are not kidding. Bring your own wine. No wine brought. You are drinking alcohol free beer with dinner. Which is fine for some. But don't want anyone disappointed. It is a traditional cuisine with a fantastic presentation. Truly. I am not a fan for all of the sauces. But you could help but eat every bite. There is a fixed price for starter and dinner. Then you can add a lm appetizer. I thought that displaced the starter. It did not. So. Be prepared. We walked back to Quebec City to walk off the calories. If you find me on the Appalachian trail in Maine. I might have broken even. Anyhow. We did the Foie grad creamer brûlée. Whoever invented that should be kissed and shot. (But not hurt. Don't want harm). Cause it is so freaking good. The fig parfait on the side was tasty. Would have preferred a different texture as it was close to the creme brûlée. But it all went together. Next was the chèvre Chaud. With diced fennel and apple. Loved this dish. Delicious. Had the lamb. It was very tasty. Again I am not a fan for the sauces. I gave it a five cause it was well prepared. The venison was actually slightly sweet and tasty. Opted out of dessert. Damn. I would be in Pennsylvania before I burned the calories.
