Quebec

Quebec is located on the Saint Lawrence River and is just a short hop away from Montreal. The city is built up like the perfect simulacrum of France. To get the real "Quebec feeling" go in February for the seventeen-day Carnival de Quebec. Sail down icy chutes from the Dufferin Terrace or compete in snow sculpting events. To warm up have a hot drink at Chateau Frontenac or for food lovers dine at Daniel Vezina's Laurie Raphael.

LAURIE RAPHAEL RESTAURANT

Daniel Vezina is the chef and heart & soul of "Laurie Raphael restaurant"; he offers a modern, progressive and varied dining experience that reflects our society and its many facets; and the plates are prettier than ever; "silky-smooth foie gras arrives on an ice cream paddle' or "Alaskan snow crab is accompanied by a bright-pink pomegranate terrine', "the rabbit which is served in two ways' or an "egg yolk 'illusion' of thickened orange juice encapsulated in a skin of pectin served in a puddle of maple syrup in an asian soup spoon"
