A Taste of Quebec has moved from its original space just inside the gates of the Distillery District into a new venue on Distillery Lane, attached to the Thompson Landry Gallery's new location. The 4,300-square-foot space in the Cooperage Building includes 3,300 square feet of gallery space and a separate cheese boutique.
"We are excited to have a second gallery with A Taste of Quebec attached. It's a nice step up for us," said Joanne Thompson, who co-owns the boutique and gallery with Sylvain Landry. "This is so much better for receptions right here on site." (The original Thompson Landry Gallery, which showcases Quebec artists, remains open in the Stone Building.)
A Taste of Quebec specializes in terroir products from the province of Quebec, including artisan cheeses, terrines, and gourmet oils. The venue has a full kitchen and catering is available on site. The boutique and gallery can accommodate groups of 230 people for cocktail parties and seat 150 for dinners; a patio seats 40.
