5/5 Sheri H. 1 year ago on Google
We
had
a
wonderfully
inventive,
creative
and
beautiful
meal,
ordering
from
the
à
la
carte
winter
menu
a
few
days
ago.
The
restaurant
has
beautiful
decor
with
lots
of
wood,
including
live
plank
slabs
suspended
artfully
on
the
ceiling,
charcoal
accents,
intimate
wooden
tables
for
2,
4
or
more
and
a
beautiful
bar
that
accommodates
seating.
The
ceiling
and
bar
drape
with
greenery,
reminding
you
that
the
food
takes
its
cues
from
the
forested
landscape
around
Quebec
City.
You
even
get
a
very
hot,
cedar
scent-infused
hot
cloth
to
wash
your
hands
as
the
meal
begins.
The
ceramic
plates
are
beautifully
artistic
and
the
stemware
is
refined.
The
restaurant
is
infused
with
soft
light
from,
lots
of
blown
glass
balls
that
hang
at
various
heights
throughout
the
restaurant
and
each
table
has
an
intimate
circle
of
light
from
a
small
table
lamp.
Yup.
This
restaurant
is
about
the
heightening
and
exploring
the
senses.
The
food
was
absolutely
beautiful
with
each
dish
looking
like
a
work
of
art.
Sometimes
that
level
of
artistry
can
sacrifice
flavour,
but
not
at
Légende...
each
dish
had
wonderful
balance,
and
intense
flavours.
Attention
was
paid
to
the
textures
as
well
so
that
each
bite
of
my
pasta
(agnolotti)
was
different.
It
was
incredibly
delicious.
I
was
hesitant
to
order
the
dessert
that
I
chose,
a
shiitake
and
hazelnut
cake
with
mushroom
caramel...
mushrooms
in
a
dessert???
But
it
was
fabulous,
being
not
too
sweet
and
most
definitely
not
tasting
of
mushrooms.
My
only
complaint
is
that
you
have
to
view
the
menu
from
your
phone...
something
that
diminishes
the
atmosphere
of
the
restaurant
and
takes
away
from
the
intimacy
of
dining
with
a
partner
where
the
outside
world
cannot
intrude.
One
other
thing
to
note
is
that
there
has
a
handful
of
single
diners
who
reserved
seating
at
the
bar
on
the
evening
we
were
there.
This
is
a
wonderful
way
for
someone
who
is
dining
solo
to
immerse
themselves
in
the
dining
experience
while
not
feeling
that
eyes
are
on
them,
sitting
alone,
at
a
table.
I
wouldn't
hesitate
to
go
there
solo.
I
was
also
very
happy
to
see
wine
from
Le
Vieux
Pin,
our
favourite
Okanagan
winery,
on
the
menu!
It's
a
very
small
winery
and
its
wines
are
very
hard
to
come
by
outside
of
the
valley.
One
last
piece
of
advice:
the
tasting
menu
takes
2
+
1/2
to
3
hours
to
do...
it
was
why
we
opted
to
go
à
la
carte
because
we
would
be
otherwise
tight
for
time.
So
leave
yourself
ample
time
to
really
enjoy
the
dining
experience.
I
will
definitely
be
back!
