Nestled within the historic vaults of Petit Champlain, La Tanière3 is a place outside of time, where each meal becomes a sensory immersion — a suspended moment. In this underground setting steeped in history, we offer an immersive experience built around a single tasting menu, crafted as a faithful reflection of our terroir, the season, and our deeply rooted culinary universe in Quebec.
Our cuisine comes to life thanks to a network of passionate partners. Five foragers, located in different regions of the province, give us privileged access to the richness of Quebec’s wild plants. Our meats come exclusively from carefully selected farms, chosen for their commitment to animal welfare and environmental respect. As for the vegetables, they are grown by a childhood friend of the chef, with whom he personally selects seeds every winter — a simple gesture, rich with meaning.
This close connection with our producers is the backbone of our cuisine. Once in our hands, these ingredients are transformed by our team with creativity and respect, aiming to surprise you and to honor the raw, subtle, and powerful flavors of our northern land. Here, Quebec hospitality reveals its full meaning: warm, sincere, and deeply human.
