Ok so the goal here is to write as many Quebec City reviews as I can since there just isnt enough yelping going on for this particular region.

After a quick menu scan of the restaurants on Rue St. Louis, we ended up at Cafe De La Paix for the rabbit and snails. Cafe De La Paix is a small-mismatching plates-seemingly family run-friendly-cozy-charming restaurant in Old Quebec serving semi-french cuisine.

Our appetizers were french onion soup & snails in cream sauce. The French soup was pretty good but the snails were small and chewy overpowered by the heavy cream sauce. For the mains we had rabbit (served with a side of scalloped potatoes & gravy) & Raspberry Vinagerette Salmon (also served with the same sides) - both were pretty good.

The coffee afterwards was cold and weak but the desserts were moist and fresh.

For the money spent (approx $160 incl. a half bottle of wine), you could probably find a much better alternative in gastronomous Quebec and in a Toronto setting, I would give this restaurant a 2 star but since I was a generous traveller in Quebec City, it gets 3 :)

PS: We dined on the lower level but there seemed to be alot of hustle bustle happening around the stairs which we didnt check out. A better restaurant upstairs maybe?
