Les Fougères, Chelsea, Quebec

Les Fougeres, Canada food, Canadian cuisine, traditional canada food, canada recipeIf you’re in the Ottawa Valley or the Outaouais and you mention the concept of regional cooking in Quebec, Les Fougères will be named. Chefs Charles Part and Jennifer Warren Part are completely and utterly dedicated to serving forth the best food and wine to their clientele. Aside from the impeccable dinners, their Sunday brunch is amazing.  I often judge a restaurant by its salads and the winter salad that Charles and Jennifer serve is perfect.  Start with house smoked bacon lardons and fresh goats milk cheese then toss simply with a classic Les Fougeres, Canadian cuisine, Canada food, canada recipe, traditional canadian foodvinaigrette and tender greens. It’s a dish to return for, time and again.   Charles, with his British roots, make a daily curry as served with pappadums and richly flavoured chutneys.  His Whale of a Burger brought him top honours in the recent Love Your Lentils Canada campaign as well.

This talented team inspire others and share their knowledge as well. Their book, A Year at Les Fougères, won the Gold Medal/Food Culture at the Cuisine Canada Culinary Book Awards in 2008.

Of course they’ve won other awards….the Prix d’Excellence du magazine Wine Spectator/Wine Spectator Award of Excellence; the Gold Medal (Ottawa) in the Gold Medal Plates competition; Cordon d’Or-Gold Ribbon – Self-Published Cookbook – for A Year at Les Fougères, but it’s the guests comments that mean the most.
