The Charm Of Charlevoix

This scenic region of Quebec is a haven for artisan food producers and culinary travelers alike.

- By SUSIE ELLISON.

An hour northeast of Quebec City is the region of Charlevoix — a world apart where mountain, forest and field follow the course of the Saint Lawrence River, unfurling in a picturesqu­e landscape dotted with small villages and family farms. In addition to the gorgeous scenery, the riches of Charlevoix are expressed wonderfull­y on the table, in a cuisine that draws on a tradition of creativity and a larder of distinctiv­e ingredient­s.
