VIEUX QUEBEC. Located in the historic Château Fontenac, this fine dining restaurant offers French and local cuisine. Traditional Continental ingredients join with local produce and game to create dishes that represent the best of two worlds. To complete the atmosphere, staff members don traditional 17th century dress. One of the most popular times to visit Le Champlain is for afternoon tea, when finger sandwiches, delectable pastries and stunning desserts are almost too much to bear. In the evening, before you dine on traditional Québec favorites, you'll most assuredly want to examine the wine list, which is among the best in the city. |

Rue du Trésor, Québec City

Description:
VIEUX QUEBEC. A uniquely Québec attraction, Rue du Trésor is a narrow alley between the Holy Trinity Anglican Cathedral and the Notre-Dame Basilica where local artists set up each morning, attracting tourists searching for one-of-a-kind souvenirs and art lovers looking for a masterpiece. It all started in the 1960s, when two young artists decided to hang up their work and sell directly to the public, sidestepping the whole gallery process. The idea caught on and by the 1970s the alley was packed with artists and art. During the 80s, the artists formed a non-profit organization to regulate their activities and ensure the high quality of work, so you won't find any velvet Elvises! |

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.

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. |
