The views here are spectacular! Absolute highlight so far - watching the whales surface repeatedly in the Bay in Tadoussac! This region is rich with beautiful landscapes and kind, smiling people. We have discovered some very good regional products here so far, with the most intriguing being the Emu . Described a cross between goose and beef in taste, these large birds were brought in from Australia and are raised in St-Urbain in the Charlevoix region. I have to admit I am a bit surprised but excited to try a few recipe ideas with this new ingredient - who knew - Emu from Québec! We bought the Emu terrine and were guaranteed that this appetizer would be a surprising, resounding success: cracker, cream cheese, Emu terrine, pepper jelly (or jelly of your choice), top with a local strawberry, raspberry or blueberry.
