A Great Tasty Idea From the Coureur Des Bois – Bistro Gourmand Team!
That’s right! While the pandemic was forcing restaurants to close their dining area, the team from the Coureur Des Bois – Bistro Gourmand demonstrated its creativity by relocating its fine gourmet experience into the hotel room!
This energetic team was certainly not going to let the virus keep it from working with the Hotel Rive Gauche to create an intimate feeling. The bistro’s tables and chairs were moved to the rooms where the guests could enjoy the unique sensation of savouring their meals in the comfort of their own surroundings.
True to the bistro formula, a waiter will stop by the room at the agreed upon time to take your order and advise you as needed, while complying with necessary protection measures. After that, your freshly prepared meal will be served to you just as in a restaurant.
As they are eating in their room, clients may bring their own wine. However, there are many who choose to follow the food and wine pairing advice that can provide an optimal experience. The bistro’s cellar is one of the world’s most impressive with its list appearing in the famed Wine Spectator for the last three years.
The team’s creativity doesn’t end there! The dining room has been transformed into a pop-up gourmet food store selling prepared meals, salmon that has been smoked on the premises, treats from the Cabane du Coureur sugar shack, etc., in short, everything you need to reward your taste buds, warm the cockles of your heart and favour a local business.
