The Michelin Guide Quebec

“The MICHELIN Guide Quebec will be the third destination in Canada, joining Toronto and Vancouver.

If you’re wondering when the restaurants will be announced, the MICHELIN Guide says the Quebec selections will be revealed in 2025, and “will feature culinary gems throughout the province.”

“Quebec is home to a rich and diverse food scene with international influences and farm-to-table dishes thanks to the variety of locally grown ingredients found throughout the region,” reads the announcement.

“We are excited to plant our flag in Quebec as the newest destination for the MICHELIN Guide in Canada,” says Gwendal Poullennec, International Director of the MICHELIN Guides.

“Quebec’s culinary scene shines a light on the rich heritage and traditions of the province attracting travellers on the lookout for remarkable and tasty experiences. I look forward to revealing what  our anonymous Inspectors discover for this inaugural selection.”
