Chez Jean-Paul is a bright arrival on the corner of Bélanger and de la Roche streets, taking over the space that once housed the bistro Coeur De Loup.
Named in homage to the chef Isael Gadoua's grandfather, the restaurant a modest spot where elegance comes through just as much as it does in the decor as it does the food. Gadoua's menu is uncomplicated yet exquisite here, offering plates like aged duck confit, sweetbeards, savory custards, marinated arctic char, and confit duck leg with roasted beets.
And that's just at night—there's a short a tidy lunch service offered here too which generally offers a few vegetable-forward dishes alongside pasta and meat and/or fish that changes often.
