Fast delivery: a dessert bar, junk food and Cora in the air

Fast delivery: a dessert bar, junk food and Cora in the air

Here is a quick delivery of a trio of news about Quebec's restaurant industry:

A new dessert bar was born in Montreal. Beware, the Ratafia is actually a gourmet dessert bar, nothing less! This trend of establishments of this kind comes mainly from Europe and the United States but had not yet arrived in Quebec. Nothing to do with a donut counter! The pastry chef and the sommelier work hand in hand to make you live a unique experience.

In another vein, do you think the government should make an extra effort when it comes to agreeing on the construction of service areas along highways? Many people find that the food supply is mainly junk food: Valentine, McDonald's A & W, Tim Hortons ... it is not uncommon to cross these signs. Since this is a public-private partnership, the truckers association hopes that the Quebec Ministry of Transport will put more pressure on the promoters.

Finally, Cora restaurants become a partner of choice for WestJet. Cora Lunch will be offered to Privilege clients departing in the morning for a two and a half hour flight. On the menu: Ben and Smoked Turkey Dictine Eggs, Vegetable Cassolette and Aged Cheddar and Spinach Omelette with Turkey Sausage. An appetizing way to start your trip!
