Auberge Le Canard Huppe

Description:

• A roadside inn reminiscent of those in the motherland, this tidy establishment takes considerable pride in its kitchen. A gourmet four-course dinner, made almost entirely of local products, is served from 5 to 8pm and costs C$38 (£19); reservations are required. Guests can have their breakfast (included in the rate) in the bistro or on the terrace under the linden tree. Rooms are attractively decorated. Practice your French: The prickly owner/chef who took over the auberge in 2004 speaks English well but seems to begrudge having to.
