Chez Temporel
Chez Temporel –This is my third visit to Quebec and every single time it gets better and better. We decided on Chez Tempurl as our dinner for the evening in the heart of old Quebec City. A little quaint restaurant of 50 years of business that creates comfort home cooked Quebec dishes. One great thing that I liked was that the menu was very small. It demonstrates to me that they make only what they know best and they are proud of it. We ordered French onion soup, duck confit, mushrooms and risotto, and the lamb shank. Just like in Paris, the style of dining is very relaxing and slow paced. The chef is very passionate about the dishes they serve so it does take some time. Each item that we ordered was fantastic. The food was made with a lot of patience which can be tasted in each bite. There was plenty of flavour that layers itself for each dish. I can’t say which dish was my favorite since each one complemented each other so that one didn’t stand out from another. They all worked together fantastically. It made the meal all more enjoyable. I would definitely go again and I would highly recommend anyone to give it a try since it’s slightly off the path of the main streets of old Quebec City yet it’s the perfect place to be if you want to wind down and avoid the heavy foot traffic.
