Le Ciel
When you find yourself in Quebec City, perched high atop the Concord Hotel, there’s one experience that should be on your must-do list: dining at Le Ciel. Part of the Restos Plaisirs group, this restaurant offers mind-blowing panoramic views and dishes up a culinary extravaganza that will leave your taste buds doing a happy dance. Join us as we take a whimsical journey through the gastronomic heavens of Le Ciel.
A Scenic Spin Like No Other
Le Ciel is perched on top of the Gayot Hotel, but it’s not your run-of-the-mill dining establishment. No, sir! This place takes dining with a view to a whole new level. Picture this: as you sit down to enjoy your meal, the entire restaurant slowly rotates, providing you with a 360-degree view of beautiful Quebec City. It’s like a never-ending sightseeing tour, but with gourmet food involved. Our necks got a good stretch from constantly turning to catch all the breathtaking views.
Food Fit for the Gods
Now, let’s talk about the star of the show – the food. Le Ciel doesn’t just serve ordinary dishes; it delivers culinary masterpieces. From the moment the first plate hit our table, we knew we were in for a treat.the melt-in-your-mouth beef cheek, and the perfectly cooked Arctic char were nothing short of spectacular. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, and we couldn’t help but savor every moment.
But it’s not just about the main courses; Le Ciel’s cocktails and cuisine are a delightful fusion of modern flavors. The presentation was impeccable, and every dish was a work of art. The chef’s creativity truly shone through, making us feel like we were dining in a Michelin-starred restaurant without the pretentiousness.
Service That Soars
While the views and food are undoubtedly the stars of the show, the service at Le Ciel deserves a standing ovation of its own. Our server was not only helpful but also incredibly attentive. They made sure our dining experience was as smooth as the restaurant’s gentle rotation. They were knowledgeable about the menu and offered excellent recommendations, enhancing our meal even further.
Sunset Magic
Pro tip: Time your reservation just before sunset. The long shadows cast by the disappearing sun add an extra layer of magic to the already enchanting atmosphere. As the sky transforms into a kaleidoscope of colors, you’ll be treated to the most jaw-dropping views in all of Quebec City. It’s a perfect backdrop to cap off an already unforgettable dining experience.
