Other good options are the pastry-wrapped duck confit and the peppered breast of duck with gooseberry sauce. The pastry chef offers simple traditional desserts such as crêpes Suzette, crème brûlée and elegant poached pears with Pernod, as well as more elaborate tortes and soufflés.

1, rue des Carrieres Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, Québec  G1R 4P5 • 418-266-3905

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.

2, rue du Petit-Champlain, Québec  G1K 4H4 • 418-694-9460
Distance: ~142 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. Chez Rabelais has an enviable location, right on the l'escalier Casse-Cou (Breakneck Stairs) – the terrace here is an ideal spot to people watch! The ambience is bustling but friendly and relaxed. Food is traditional French and Italian – top dishes include steak frites and mussels prepared several different ways. Fries are crispy and satisfying, served with a side of mayonnaise, and the salads are lovely. If you prefer, dine in the bistro, which has an abbreviated menu and a slightly more casual atmosphere.

Distance: ~172 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. Reminiscent of an Uptown New York restaurant in the '50s, Le Continental offers a certain air of sophistication, from tuxedoed waiters preparing last minute tableside touches to make your evening unforgettable to the innovative menu.

Crêperie le Petit Château
(Restaurants - Continental)
5, rue St-Louis, Québec  G1R 3Y8 • 418-694-1616
Distance: ~189 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. In the shadow of the Château Frontenac, Crêperie le Petit Château serves light, airy crêpes all day long. However, breakfast is a special time, to be sure. Since a crêpe is really a thin pancake, try any of the 58 varieties available for breakfast – stuffed with sausage, ham or bacon. And don't forget the maple syrup! In the warmer months a patio area is open, and the Petit Château often features live music.

Toast!
(Restaurants - Continental)
17, rue Sault-au-Matelot Le Priori Hotel, Québec  G1K 3Y7 • 418-692-1334
Distance: ~207 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. The stylish restaurant, found in the equally stylish Le Priori Hotel, became a hit as soon as it opened its retro-sleek doors. The chef combines the best local produce in traditional Continental preparations with truly amazing results. The menu is unusual and innovative, but there's enough familiarity to appeal to a good cross section of diners. Begin with foie gras pressed with apples and port, or try the Italian-style red tuna sashimi. Follow with a main course of pan-fried veal sweetbreads, or Alberta rack of lamb with a mustard and citrus crust. Desserts are inventive: try the "spice bread reconstruction" with petite scoops of three ice creams – nutmeg, cinnamon and clove, and anise.
