About
Chez Boulay is a restaurant in Quebec City, at 1110 Rue Saint-Jean, in the G1R 1S4 postal area. It is a classic Quebec bistro, and a visit here is a straightforward way to eat the region's traditional cooking.
The food
The kitchen works with the dishes most associated with Quebec. Among them are tourtière, the spiced meat pie of the province, and poutine, the dish of fries, cheese curds and gravy that many visitors come looking for. Both are a good place to start for anyone who wants to taste Quebec's everyday food rather than a reinterpretation of it.
The setting
The room is warm and rustic, the kind of bistro where a long meal feels comfortable. It suits a relaxed lunch or dinner, particularly after a day of walking the old town.
