Bistro B

1
1144, av Cartier, Québec, QC G1R 2S5

Bistro B, which rapidly became a go-to place on avenue Cartier, is one of the few restaurants in town to have a pastry chef on staff. Available selections vary depending on the chef’s inspiration but they always feature local products - sometimes unusual ones, like mushrooms.

Nina Pizza Napolitaine

410, rue Saint-Anselme, Québec, QC G1K 5T2

It is very easy (too easy?) to be a huge fan of the pizza at Nina pizza napolitaine on rue Saint-Anselme. Here, the pizza is cooked in a true Italian wood oven. Imagine the delight when a sweet Nutella treat is made in a similar way. If you are searching for gluten-free treats, know that they also offer a changing selection of gluten-free desserts, which are just as tasty.

Bleu Marine

50 Rue Saint-Louis, Québec, QC G1R 3Z3

We love the lightness of the seasonal desserts offered by this excellent bistro on rue Saint-Jean in the Saint-Jean-Baptiste neighbourhood. Their dishes change with the seasons and feature local products prepared with a French touch.

La Planque Restaurant

1027 3E Av, Québec, QC G1L 2X3

3rd Avenue in Limoilou has found its flagship restaurant in La Planque. Although the chef has changed recently (Guillaume St-Pierre left and Olivier Godbout, formerly of Le Circle, stepped in), we know that the creativity and quality remain excellent. You must come by to find out what the new chef has in store for you!

Restaurant Laurie Raphael

117, rue Dalhousie, Québec, QC G1K 9C8

Here at Laurie Raphaël on rue Dalhousie, maple cotton candy that foodies cannot do without. You can request it for dessert, but it’s also available at brunch time during maple season, as folks are obsessed with it! The lucky ones may even be able to try at making one for themselves.
