Conti Caffè
(Restaurants - Lunch)
32, rue St-Louis, Québec  G1R 3Y9 • 418-692-4191
Distance: ~129 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. Adjacent to and sharing a kitchen with the renowned Le Continental, the Conti Caffè has a sleek, contemporary décor that complements the flavorful Italian cooking. You'll find pizzas on the menu, but the best dishes involve seafood and grilled meats. The seafood antipasto platter, a selection of superbly fresh oceanic tidbits, will leave you enamored, and veal dishes are especially well prepared. A variety of pastas are suitable for a second or main course depending on your appetite, but desserts are excellent so try to leave room for some cassata or sorbet.

Le Lapin Sauté
(Restaurants - Lunch)
52, rue du Petit-Champlain, Québec  G1K 4H5 • 418-692-5325

Located in the heart of the Quartier Petit Champlain, this lovely country-style restaurant specializes in tasty rabbit dishes (rabbit is "lapin" in French); though, gratin savoyard and rosemary chicken offer fine alternatives. If you've got something a little lighter in mind, try delicious sun-dried tomato pizza or even a warm baguette. Take note: the best time to dine here is on a warm summer afternoon, when their shaded patio provides a charming respite from the rigors of shopping.

You won't leave disappointed – or hungry. Enjoy live accordion music as musicians perform mellow French ballads. Truly a unique Québec experience!
