Aix Cuisine du Terroir
(Restaurants - Quebecois)

Distance: ~1.014 km *
        Description: No gastronomic tour of Montréal would be complete without the authentic flavors of Québecois cuisine. Step into the promenade of the Hôtel Place d'Armes and discover the juxtaposition of earthy flavors amidst the urban chic of Aix. Here the curving banquettes and sheer fabric hangings create intimate spaces in which to enjoy a smoked rack of wild boar or roasted caribou. For those less adventurous, tender veal or duck breast make excellent choices. Each and every menu item bears the stamp of local Canadian production from vegetables to vinegar.

Verses
(Restaurants - Quebecois)
100 Rue St-Paul W Nelligan Hotel, Montréal  H2Y 1Z3 • 514-788-4000 • 514-788-2040
Distance: ~1.184 km *
        Description: If rustic and sleek could be said in the same description, it would certainly be in the dining room and in the dishes of Verses, in the hip Hotel Nelligan. The contemporary chic of tall mirrors and simple furnishings, set against a backdrop of brick walls and an abundance of natural light, complement the cuisine which is French with a Québécois twist. The chef works exclusively with fresh market produce and other local ingredients to craft Québec lamb, rack of Boileau deer with caramelized apples and Angus beef filet with noisette de foie gras. A standout for lunch, or dine on light fare on the terrasse.

Chez L'Épicier
(Restaurants - Quebecois)
311 rue St-Paul est, Montréal  H2Y 1H3 • 514-878-2232
Distance: ~1.640 km *
        Description: If you're craving quality food, simply prepared and served in casual surroundings, head over to this fashionable eatery. Fresh ingredients are given prominence, and there are no repetitions; each dish is carefully and uniquely constructed. Enjoy the pan-fried Marieville foie gras escalope served as a napoleon with gingerbread, butternut squash purée, shallot compote with dried prunes, duck juice vinaigrette and allspice. The cuisine is creatively Québécois, meaning that, while many of the components are produced locally, it also takes advantage of French techniques. It's also a good place to pick up take-out for the comfort of your own home.

Distance: ~2.503 km *
        Description: Much favored for its fantastic take on French/Québecois cuisine, Au Pied de Cochon has earned beaucoup praise for its chef-owner Martin Picard. If foie gras is your passion, this is the place to get it – as a topping for poutine, in a tart or terrine, on pizza, even in a burger. Bison, boudin and duck also play prominent roles on the menu. The dessert list is lengthy with something for every taste, from baked apple to dark chocolate pot de crème to rhubarb pudding to maple syrup pie. Lively, relaxed and very, very popular.
