Visiting Autumn Leaves
Re: Visiting Autumn Leaves
So previous Monday (26th Sep) we left the Glen House in the White Mountains for Quebec. On the way there we stopped by a wonderful restaurant for brunch J's Corner
Very busy restaurant during lunch, there's no table so we sat at the bar
The bar
My beer
Onion soup
Here comes the steak
Here comes my fish
Ordered a chicken finger (to go finally)
Wonderful experience and very good service and delicious food.

After the lunch we continued our drive entering Canada via Stanstead border crossing. While leaving the US there's no immigration check you simply drive on and hit the Canadian side of the border crossing passport control. There was only 1 car in front of the queue. When it was my turn I simply gave the officer our passports and showed him QR code (on my phone) that we received after filling up a form online with the ArriveCAN app. Then we're off, about 2 minutes I'd say.
Then it was a 3hrs drive to our hotel in Quebec

Next day we decided to have Indian food for lunch. We Googled and there was a Royal Tandori so we went.
On arrival we found ourselves in a "not so nice" neighbourhood. Its like the houses are really old and streets dirty how shall I say? Hate to say this but yes its like a "low income" neighbourhood. First reaction was regret as I don't think such a place will have nice and authentic Indian food.
Anyway since we arrived let's do it
Inside also looked old but we were immediately welcomed by a very nice aroma of Indian spices really wonderful fragrant
but is clean I must say
We were the only customer, again a feeling of regret
The chicken buryani came first
Naan
Beef curry
Lamb curry
Oh wonderful lamb
Spinach
Finally I highly recommend this very authentic Indian restaurant if you are looking for one in Quebec. A real gem we found.

Re: Visiting Autumn Leaves
They say all visitors to Quebec have to visit the Old Quebec, so this is it.
This is a beautiful and historical part of Quebec

In my experience usually the best ethnic food places are exactly in "shadier" parts of town.yong wrote: ↑Wed Oct 05, 2022 5:12 am

Re: Visiting Autumn Leaves
So it was our first time in Canada and Quebec of course, kind of strange for us to see everything in French like we're in Europe hahahaha
Nice experience in McDonalds (in french)
McGriddles never seen this before
