Le Lapin Sauté

Top choice in Québec City


Naturally, lapin (rabbit) plays a starring role at this cozy, rustic restaurant just south of the funicular's lower terminus, in such dishes as rabbit cassoulet or rabbit poutine. Other enticements include salads, French onion soup, charcuterie platters and an excellent-value lunch menu (from $16). In good weather, sit on the flowery patio overlooking tiny Parc Félix-Leclerc.

All of the rabbit served here is raised without hormones or antibiotics on a farm in nearby Beauce.
