2-Day Foodie Adventure to Gatineau, Quebec from the Toronto Area
Fondue Dinner • Cheese Dairy Tour & Tasting • High Tea • Hors d'oeuvres Overload Lunch
Bring your healthy appetite, loose fitting clothing and your sense of adventure for this two-day foodie escape from Toronto to Gatineau, Quebec. The tour is a delicious experience designed to tempt your taste buds from start to finish. From savoury hors d’oeuvres to bubbling fondue and silky afternoon tea, every bite tells a story of comfort, creativity, and culinary joy. This is the perfect getaway for those who believe travel should be tasted as much as seen.
Our first stop takes us to a charming country inn tucked away in Cornwall, where lunch is a feast of flavour-packed finger foods. Think a continuous parade of chilled tiger shrimp, mushroom caps with florentine stuffing, seared steak bites in lettuce cups, smoked salmon bites, fresh fruit platter with yoghurt dip and more, all served in a cozy setting. With trays of hors d’oeuvres arriving fresh from the kitchen, you’ll graze your way through lunch in the most indulgent way possible.
After checking into our hotel in Gatineau we will trek out to a true showstopper: a fondue dinner at a rustic chalet-style restaurant that brings the cuisine of the Swiss Alps to Quebec. Surrounded by scents of melted broths and cheese, you’ll dip crisp vegetables, artisan bread, and tender meats into bubbling pots of fondue. And for dessert? Chocolate fondue of course!
On day two, we head to a celebrated local dairy that’s been crafting award-winning cheeses for over a century. You’ll explore the behind-the-scenes magic of cheese-making before diving into a tasting that celebrates everything from bold aged cheddars to famously squeaky curds. Their market is a food lover’s paradise—perfect for picking up gourmet goodies and gifts.
We wrap up our tasty 2-day tour with an elegant afternoon tea at a serene hillside retreat. Sip fragrant teas while enjoying buttery scones, delicate sandwiches, and pastries almost too pretty to eat. It’s a peaceful and delicious finale to a whirlwind of flavour, fun, and foodie discovery.
