But that said, there were just so many fantastic chefs at this event, and at a time when Canadians are shunning American produce and pulling American wines and spirits off our shelves (thank you President Trump 🤔) it was heartwarming to see this event bring us together with our neighbours to the south.
Politics may drive us apart but food and hospitality keep us together and thank God for that! Now I want to try Chicago’s, the #1 restaurant last night and especially The Grey in gorgeous Savannah Georgia helmed by Best Female chef winner,, a great example for all the women in need of a role model.
So congrats to all and if I could see one thing change, how about a few more Quebec City restaurants on that list? 🙏
Fingers crossed for 2027 😁🤞

These days she writes on Substack, travels widely, and remains a sharp observer of restaurant culture in the country.
As Quebec’s second Michelin Guide approaches, she questions whether the city’s restaurants are built for what the guide rewards—and what chasing stars really costs.
