Les Tetes De Cochon

Délicieux, authentique et délicat à la fois. La Poutine Super Cochon est définitivement à goûter. Service très accueillant et ambiance très sympa!

Ate here with friends at the start to a long weekend in the Laurentians to see the fall colours. Yes, it’s partly a butcher shop and partly a restaurant, so the décor is not exactly sophisticated, plus it’s on the side of the 117, but it is well worth a stop on your way up north.
I had a green salad that was a fresh and tasty mesclun with a simple dressing, to start. Others in our party had Mac and cheese and charcuterie, which they appreciated. My beloved had the beef tartare and I had the onglet. The meat was really delicious and tender. I found the tartare nicely spiced (though my beloved found it a little over-​spiced). The onglet was melt-​in-​your-​mouth tender, cooked rare (European-​style rare) and served with a delicious reduction sauce and fries. The fries were very good also.
For dessert, we tried the crème brûlée and the fondant au Chocolat. I have never tasted one quite so light. It was almost a soufflé and not too sweet. The. Crème brûlée was the perfect temperature with a sheet of caramel on top, just as it should be.
We washed it all down with a half litre bottle of Crianza, which was a perfect red meat accompaniment. Choices of wine in half bottles and by the glass were sufficient, which is handy when you’re getting behind the wheel again.
Portions were also European-​style however, so it was quite expensive by comparison to other restaurants. But it was nice to leave the table without feeling too stuffed, and I’d go back again simply because I haven’t had such tasty meat in a long, long time.
A note on service, just because I see others were dissatisfied. It was unexceptional but nothing to complain about. If meat is your thing, you won’t regret trying Les Têtes de Cochon.

The duck confit was worth waiting for… but the service was less than attentive. We arrived at 6pm and did not finish until 9:30pm. Waited a longtime for water then drinks and our meal… The wait staff mentioned a new chef in the kitchen. Good concept, needs better execution.

Great place to stop on your way back from skiing in the Laurentians. It’s a restaurant that doubles as a high end butcher counter, so the meat they use in their dishes is of excellent quality. They also have a nice selection of local beers.

We really liked this restaurant. There was awesome quality meat which was cooked perfectly, the portions were of a right size and the service was great. We will definitely go back!
There is also a butcher counter for organic/​local meat to take home — original concept!

Terrific organically sourced menu. We had the daily specials of lamb and beef bavette (flank/​skirt) steak which were excellent along with fresh grilled vegetables. We also had excellent desserts and cappuccinos in a contemporary rustic setting in the heart of the Laurentians. Attentive and friendly service.
