Gourmet addresses in Charlevoix: Where to eat well in the region
We’re living a strange summer to say the least: vacations abroad cancelled, ban on outdoor gatherings in effect until a few weeks ago, terraces rearranged… However, that doesn’t mean we can’t take advantage of the good weather by organizing a little outing without leaving the country.
This year, a weekend away to recharge your batteries and unwind will certainly not be refused amidst the stress of these unprecedented times. Quebec is a vast region, full of beautiful and quiet places to rest and abandon the stress and worries of the city.
One of these regions, as well as being one of the most coveted in the province, is Charlevoix. With its sublime landscapes, its national parks, its charming villages and its numerous art galleries, this is an undeniably perfect destination for a successful getaway. And if that’s not enough for you to pack your bags right now, we’d like to inform you that the region is also rich in culinary attractions.
Its capital, the city of Baie-Saint-Paul, is well known and recognized as a gastronomic destination. It has several fine restaurants which you can discover in our list of good addresses in Baie-Saint-Paul.
We have also found other excellent addresses in the region to share with you, perhaps less known, but well worth the detour! In this list, you’ll find suggestions of gourmet addresses throughout Charlevoix that will enhance your well-deserved vacation.
