Drove by here and told myself I need to stop in and sample one of QC's fine cheese shops! Luckily…read moreit was open on a Thursday night at 7:30 PM. They told me it was closing at 8 PM. A bountiful selection of cheeses. What I found interesting was the wide selection of seasoned cheese curds. With selections such as fine herbs, 3 pepper, BBQ, Rebel BBQ, Cajun Bayou, who would have thought there was a market for seasoned- flavoured cheese? I went with the traditional cheese curds. Bought a $7 bag and can attest the quality is not overly salty but equally squeaky. They have a large selection of other kinds of cheese plus all the stuff you need for poutine and other items such as cheese bread and interesting food selections. A good selection for a Quebec City Cheese shop! Prices are reasonable. It's not France pricing but it's not overly expensive!

After reading Audrey's review, we decided we had to find this place. We got dreadfully lost at…read morefirst bit when we finally arrived, it was well worth the frustration. Not only is the cheese selection superb, we lucked out with the one guy who actually spoke English. By the time we were done we ended up with a delightful lunch of cheese and one of the best terrines I have ever had (why don't we have these more in the states?). The bakery next door provided a tasty baguette and the coffee shop was a relaxing setting to put it all together. This is very much a local spot and if you don't speak the language, like us you may find yourself fumbling but all the purveyors were paitent. I would definatly come back here. The correct address for this place is. 2500 Ch des Quatre Bourgeois, Sainte-Foy, QC G1V 4P9, Canada. Do not use the yelp one, you'll end up in an industrial park.

You mean, I don't have to lose a day flying to France?!! You fufill our French-Canadian ethnic eats too! If you follow your nose to Les Halles du Petit Quartier on Avenue Cartier a few blocks outside of the old city walls of Quebec, you will be rewarded with the best cheese on this continent. When we visited early September 2009, we found this gem of a foodie paradise mall which held Aux Petit Delices, a fromagerie (cheese and charcuterie shop). We were drooling over the cheeses when the owner of the place came over. He said that he comes from a long line of cheese masters. He explained and handed us samplings of a variety of cheeses for over a half an hour. We were stuffed and we still had to meet some friends for lunch! This week we dragged some friends to this delightful place. We grabbed some strong blue cheese, brie, camembert, and smooth foie gras truffle cheeses. We ordered duck terrine (melt in your mouth fatty duck pate) and bresola (chewy salty prosciutto) from their charcuterie counter. We grabbed some baguettinis from the local boulangerie (also in this foodie mall) and snarfed our make shift sandwiches in their food court. My husband grabbed some large Quebecois beer in the beer store to wash things down. Sitting across from the patisserie certainly did not help. Of course, we had to order a scrumptious moulin de fruits which was the best tasting "profiterole" ever! Why can't the Americans get cream right like the Quebecois! The citron creme brûlée and napoleon were not as memorable. Needless to say, my friends were impressed. This beats any overpriced touristy restaurant. (Avoid the menus printed in French and English!)

We stayed in St. Roch, Quebec this summer and had to check out the neighbourhood cheese shop…read more Fromagerie des Grondines is great! In addition to selling cheese and other goodies, inside the cheese shop is a counter that makes and sells hot food! We ordered a grilled cheese sandwich with mushrooms, a baguette sandwich, a large poutine and everything was delicious. The cheese was flavourful. The baguette was perfectly crisp and chewy. The poutine was delightful - with lots of cheese curds, sweet corn and veggie gravy. I picked up a bottle of Raw Quebec Honey for my mom and she absolutely loved the deep flavour. I also bought a bag of D'Antan Maple Potato Donuts for myself and the donuts were epic - so soft, great maple flavour yet not too sweet.

It was walking distance from our hotel and a beautiful day! Behold my biggest food dream all in one little shop. We had delicious, freshly made grilled cheeses (including poire et brie), baguette with smoked salmon, perfectly cooked French fries, and even the side salad was tasty. You can also take cheese samplers to go and all the accouterments you could ever want. They had many other unique products like Goat Milk Caramel and smoked trout. Be sure to visit. You will not be disappointed!

From the perfectly crisp traditional baguettes to the savory quiches and incredible sandwiches, you can't go wrong with anything here.

It's much smaller and features a different menu, but the quality is equally spectacular.

It's near Jacques Cartier National Park so if you time your trip around fall foliage as I did, you can enjoy your pastries surrounded by the colors of the fall season. The pastries are everything I imagined -- super flakey and delicious. Located outside Quebec City, it was said to be the best pastry shop in the area. I don't think you can go wrong. You just point at whatever is calling you. There was line, but the line moves swift. Is it strange that I get happy and excited when I meet fellow Filipinos. I find comfort in meeting them and it always feels like meeting family away from home. There was a group of them working at this bakery in Stoneham. They were all smiles and very welcoming to me the English speaker in this French speaking province. If you're in the Quebec City and you have your own car, I recommend a visit to Pascal and working off your carb loading with a walk through Jacques Cartier National Park.
