The Charlevoix region is famous for the food processing expertise of its artisans involved in food processing and for the quality of its local products. There is also great cooperation between the farmers and the local chefs, and this is reflected in the menus at the various dining establishments.
The
Route des Saveurs circuit has its origins in the close association between producers and chefs. On the one hand, producers welcome visitors wanting to discover the secrets of the farm and its processing operations. In most establishments, you can also sample the products and purchase them directly from the farm. On the other hand, the chefs use these same Charlevoix products, incorporating them into their standard recipes, and they make it a priority to showcase them on their menus. Travelling along the Route des Saveurs is a unique way to explore the Charlevoix region, sample its products and meet its inhabitants.
