Fall is a great season for savouring a wide variety of Quebec products. It’s a time to pick your own apples and pumpkins and make the most of the harvest! Some foodies will take to the countryside to follow a themed circuit or attend a food festival while others head the city for some fine dining in a renowned restaurant. There are also vineyards, cider houses and microbreweries: these are places where tastings and a warm welcome go hand in hand!

The Magdalen Islands offer no shortage of flavours, even in the fall! The chillier weather also means it’s time to pick graines (the local name for wild cranberries) and chanterelles; and why not enjoy this quieter time to sample the offerings of local producers such as Fromagerie du Pied-de-Vent (chesses) and Le Fumoir d’Antan (smoked fish). And when it’s time to go out to eat, you’ll find delicious meals at a number of places, including Domaine du Vieux-Couvent (open until December) as well as L’Îlot Café-Buvette, Resto de l’île and Boulangerie Madelon (open year-round). Bear in mind that some establishments may close for the season, so it’s always best to call ahead!
