Day 9 - Brunch at Restaurant 1640, Auberge du Trésor Hotel -> Place d'Armes

This was our third brunch in three consecutive days and it was french cuisine at Restaurant 1640, Auberge du Trésor Hotel. Cost per person : US$37 nett. Felt that the food at Skylon was better though he guide claimed that the steak was better here.




Steak - a little hard and dry, over-rated and expensive

The lamb tasted better

After enjoying our lunch, we were left with little time to roam around Place d'Armes. It was going to be a 4-5 hours ride to Boston, we had to set off at around 11am.

The Château Frontenac is a grand hotel in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada, which is operated as Fairmont Le Château Frontenac. It was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1980. Prior to the building of the hotel, the site was occupied by the Chateau Haldimand, residence of the British colonial governors of Lower Canada and Quebec. The hotel is generally recognized as the most photographed hotel in the world, largely due to its prominence in the skyline of Quebec City.

Luxurious, and magnificent Fairmont Le Château Frontenac which offers breathtaking views, historic architecture in Old Quebec City.


The gothic-style fountain at place d'Armes is crowned by Monument de la Foi and commemorates the 300th anniversary of the arrival of the Récollet missionaries in 1615.

Statue of Samuel de Champlain, Quebec City. Statue of Samuel de Champlain (1567–1635) who was an explorer, geographer and map-maker, who founded Québec City in 1608. He is important to Canadian history because he made the first accurate map of the coast and he helped establish the settlements.
