Six at our table, visiting Quebec and Chateau Frontenac from North Carolina, and one had the…read morebrilliant idea some weeks ago that we should get an afternoon tea while we're in town. Best. idea. ever. It gave us plenty of time to chat with each other, graze our way through pots of tea and three tiers of awesomeness, plus every spare inch of space on the table was filled with "additional" desserts. We compared favorites at the end and a few things rose above the crowd, but even our "meh" items within this extensive list would have been pretty darn good on any other list, it's just that the bar was set so high, and still the superlatives were surprisingly topped. The only thing that would make this better would be a printout of what was on the table once everything was served, because even though the servers explained everything, there was so much, we had to repeated ask them on their return loops what some of the items were. (There's a tea house near home that does that consistently and it makes our lives better.) When all's said and done, two of us liked the lavender-citrus dessert best UNTIL trying the strawberry shortcake dessert and then both changed their favorite to that. Two of us liked the smoked salmon best, but dealt with it differently -- it was on the bottom layer with the savories, so we both tried it first, but one ate it all up right away and the other saved it after the first bit and finished it last, after the sweets. One liked her pot of tea best -- she'd gone with #3, the Grand Bazaar Spice, which has cardamom, cloves, and anise, and which actually 3 at the table chose for their tea. (The other ones picked were Creamy Earl Grey, Imperial Breakfast, and Ontario Ice Wine.) And the final favorite was the hazelnut cream puff. The scones were also truly delightful, and I need to remember more often to indulge in orange marmalade. Also, the opening sparkling tea? So much better than sparkling cider!

It is a awesome change from some of the foo foo bistros in old Town Quebec City in that you get a tremendous bang for your buck and quality food cheap at 'Continents. What really gets me is looking at the reviews of this place right after I saw some lady's yelp review of a expensive Quebec City restaurant that complimented the single crispy grape tomato that came with her food. Geez Louise gimme a break. Bottom line if you are visiting Quebec City and happen to have a hot date (or if you want to gawk at people's hot dates) choose the expensive bistro. If you are a tourist with kids, coming to Buffet les Continents is a sure shot and should be a no brainer. It's only a few miles away from the old Town and they have a parking lot. Also kids up to 12 years old are free! Coffee is included too! The salad here was fresh with a decent array of stuff. From cucumbers to tomatoes, spinach to hardboiled eggs. The mussels were tasty, decent sized and not sandy (gotta love that we are in Quebec) and the linguini was cooked pretty well. Meat sauce spaghetti was also pretty good. They had a pretty nice spread overall for a lunch buffet. Pesto pasta, fettuccine, even aisles of food from different continents (hence the name). Hop from one aisle where you go from Greek souvlaki and Greek grilled chicken to the other with mapo tofu and other Asian fare. They also had salmon and several other tasty fishes, and ice cream. Smoked meat at the meat carving station tasted almost as good as the restaurant near my hotel (Radio Cafe in Beaupre) that charged $2.75 extra for a small sprinkling of smoked meat on my poutine. It was no Schwartz on St Laurent in Montreal but it was good. I went back for my third helping of smoked meat. The servers were so gracious. Always telling us bon Appétit and was so happy with the 20% tip we left. It wasn't much being 20% of $15 per adult (and 4 kids eating free) but she was really happy.

I wouldn't say service was top notch but it wasn't bad either. We got our food fairly quickly, chicken bhuna was tasty, chicken was fully cooked and soft. Gravy was legit too. I asked for hot and I got hot food (spice-wise). I ordered garlic nan which was a departure from what I have had in India and elsewhere, but to be fair to the owner he did tell me that it isn't authentic before I placed the order. My friend ordered regular nan which looked good (as expected). Owner was gracious enough to let us continue eating for another 30-35 mins after his closing time (10 pm) and offered to pack the leftovers but we were just too full that night and had no means to store the food. I would definitely return to this place if I get a chance.

However, the food itself was quite disappointing. It was marketed to us as a high-end, fancy dining experience, but the food quality was meh. It was bland, particularly the rice and veggies. As for the different meat/protein options, it was alright. Nothing shockingly fancy, each individual sauces does complement the meat well, but not as flavourful as I had initially anticipated. The maple duck drumstick was a cool addition as that's something I haven't tried before, but as you can see from the photo, barely any meat.. portion sizes were also not huge as they strive for that "fancy" dining experience. Trying this once was more than enough.
