Food is more gathering than ever. The number of foodies is on the rise and the events around the food are exploding. Right now, we are celebrating food like never before in Quebec. Want to gather with other inveterate enthusiasts of the boustifaille? We take part in one or the other of these events held throughout the province. Long live the food!
1. Mac n Cheese Week
In early April, MacN Cheese Week is held in Montreal and Quebec City. The comforting dish of our childhood passes into the hands of the chefs of many restaurants that remold it a beauty. We taste the macaroni in the various participating restaurants during the week for a fixed maximum price.
2. Poutine Week
At the beginning of February, the conservators of the province fight to win the title of best poutine. For the occasion, they revisit the classic fries, cheese in grains, brown sauce for the pleasure of our taste buds. We drank from restaurant to restaurant to taste the creations.
