The first place we run into during a rain storm during a road trip and it turns out to be quite the…read morecatch! The interior is warm and rustic. Its Maritime-y vibe stays true to its port-side location.
The menu consists mostly of a variety of pub starters, homemade pizzas, and sandwhiches. The drink menu varies between local brews, a small wine selection, and some interesting cocktails that I regret not trying.
My friends and I shared a plate of nachos, an amazing way to start any pub meal. I do not remember exactly what was on them because I was not paying attention, which means they were good enough to distract me from analyzing their secrets.
I ordered the smoked salmon sandwich, served in a crusty italian bun and dressed with a wasabi based dressing. This sandwich is responsible for changing the way I think about smoked salmon as an ingredient. The same can be said for wasabi. This sandwich was fresh and tasty the whole way through. The sauce was tasty and offered a mild burning sensation that begins at the pallet and exits the nose - a noteable trait of wasabi.
My friends both ordered the Jack Daniels chicken pizza and both enjoyed it very much. Based off the bite I took, the toppings complimented each other well. The sauce added a level of smokiness, over the smokiness of the wood oven, that I enjoyed.
Great pub if you are visiting Tadoussac. They are stocked with some tabletop games to keep busy with while it rains. The staff is great. Food is fantastic. I will forever remember Tadoussac as the place I ate a kickass smoked salmon sandwhich, and saw a whale!
