ST. LAWRENCE TO HOST TRIO OF ‘CABANE À SUCRE’ DINNERS IN JANUARY 2020

Award-Winning Vancouver Restaurant Pays Homage to an Annual Québécois Tradition with Authentic, Multi-Course Feasts Featuring Maple Syrup as the Centrepiece

One of the country’s most-beloved restaurants will transport guests on a culinary adventure to Québec when St. Lawrence hosts a trio of exclusive Cabane à Sucre dinners on January 19, 20 and 21, 2020.

With seatings at 5:30 and 8 p.m. each night, the Cabane à Sucre dinners will allow celebrated Chef/Owner J-C Poirier to pay homage to his Québécois heritage and an annual tradition in la belle province, when families flock to maple forests to enjoy rustic, homespun habitant meals at the ‘Sugar Shacks’ where sap is boiled and turned into prized syrup.

Beginning with a welcome Sugar Shack-inspired cocktail created by Bar Manager Yacine Sylla, the evening features a menu comprising classic Cabane-styled dishes like Soupe aux Pois & Pâte Feuilletée, Tourtière de Canard avec Sauce à l’Érable and Jambon de Porc & Ragoût de Boulettes. The dinner also includes an array of dishes served sur la table such as Fèves aux Lard et Bruxelles, Gratin Savoyard & Poutine Sauce and Sucre à la Crème & Maple Marshmallows, and finishes with cognac and a dessert course of Pudding Chômeur & Glace Vanille.

“Visiting the Cabane à Sucre with my family was something that I used to look forward to every year,” says Poirier, who spent his formative years in Saint-Jérôme, Quebec before embarking on his culinary career. “We want to give our guests an authentic taste of the sugar shack experience from start to finish and show why this is such a time-honoured part of our Québécois heritage.”
