Between the cliffs of the Saguenay fjord, the riverside villages, and the mountains plunging into the water, the region hosts an exceptional concentration of producers, artisans, and restaurateurs who have made the Charlevoix terroir a national reference.
The cow's milk cheeses from Île-aux-Coudres, the lambs from Charlevoix, the organic charcuterie from Charlevoix: so many products that have traveled the region to be found on the best tables and cafés in Quebec. Including at Carrera Café, just steps from Château Frontenac.
The organic charcuterie from Charlevoix that we serve at Carrera is not just a menu detail: it is a statement. We choose Charlevoix because the region represents the best of Quebec in artisanal processing. Every board served at Carrera is a tribute to this exceptional terroir.
If you're heading for a weekend in Charlevoix, or even just a day, plan a morning stop at Carrera before hitting the road. It's the perfect appetizer for what's ahead: local products, attention to detail, and a focus on quality.
An espresso at Carrera before taking the 138 towards Charlevoix: it's the perfect ritual. Short, concentrated, energizing. The road to Charlevoix takes about an hour and a half from Quebec, and it's beautiful. Better to start with the right fuel.
If you leave early, the Carrera board with its Charlevoix charcuteries and homemade focaccia is the ideal breakfast before the road. Generous, local, nourishing: you'll arrive at your destination with an appetite sharpened for the day's discoveries.
The Organic Charcuteries of Charlevoix use free-range pigs fed the traditional way, without additives, respecting animal welfare. The result: hams, rillettes, and terrines of exceptional quality, with deep and authentic flavors. This is Charlevoix at its finest.
On the way back from Charlevoix, if you pass through Quebec before heading home, Carrera Café is the natural stop to unwind and extend the pleasure of the getaway. One last espresso, maybe a glass of wine, and the memories of Charlevoix become even more vivid.
Carrera is the start of the getaway and its natural conclusion. Like pole position and the podium: two distinct, equally precious moments for the same race.
