No trip is complete without at least one brunch, right? Cochon Dingue made that happen for us before heading out of Quebec City.



It was a very busy restaurant, but very cute and like a mix between rustic but with clean edges. If that makes sense. We were seated quickly, and I immediately placed a coffee order. Well, I placed a hot chocolate order - which is an option if you don't want coffee. Win.


The menu has your typical eggs, bacon, oatmeals, waffles ... but something I don't always see is "egg casseroles." The smoked salmon, asparagus and fleurmier cheese one caught my eye.

The egg casserole came with a side of seasoned hash browns and onions, toast with homemade jam and a "little treat," which was essentially a smoothie.

This meal was likely the best meal with eggs I've ever eaten. I just don't get excited about eggs, but you know what fixes that? Literally putting an entire hunk of melty cheese on top, layered with smoked salmon and a few fresh spears of asparagus for a little extra somethin-somethin.

SO much food, and it was all really, really good. And, I may be converted to an egg lover after this casserole.

At this very chic, very intimate restaurant in Le Priori hotel, mod light fixtures are set against stone-and-brick walls, and a secret garden terrace removes all street noise out back, making it perfect for a relaxing night with friends. Enjoy chef Christian Lemelin's elaborate take on lobster risotto, a scrumptious pork cassoulet, or fried duck with adobo spice and squash gnocchi (Fodors).

The interior is beautiful with modern decor, dim lighting and deep red colors weaved throughout. I started my meal with an adult beverage - because New Year's. I ordered the "Rhubarbtini," which had vodka, triple sec, eau de rhubarbe and zest.

Yes, I really liked this; but I also really like rhubarb. These martini glasses were like stainless steel. That was a new one for me. Our server helped recommend some drinks and was very accommodating with our broken French.

First up was some bread and oil. Not bad. Little salt, little parmesan, lots of oil - you can't go wrong.

For appetizers, we ordered: Québec farm raised bison tartar with «duxelles», figatelli from «cochons tout ronds» and whipped foie gras $ 24 (Created in 2012) - Celeriac and black garlic pudding, hollandaise with Aliksir black pepper, cipollini confit. It's such a small serving for $24, but man was it good. The tartar is so fresh, the whipped foie gras is light, and these flavors all together were just fantastic.

We also got the Foie gras «torchon» from Canard Goulu farm, golden poultry jus glaze $ 28 * (Created in 2012) Mushroom marinated in Xérès vinegar, confit gizzards, Québec plums & hazelnut, homemade brioche. We knew we needed to try this foie gras, and I was not disappointed. I was never a fan when I've tried it before, but it's also never been this creamy, this flavorful or this absolutely delicious. Paired with some pickled mushrooms, sweet plums and homemade bread - it only got better.

 Just live for the moment and forget about the time at Toast!, the restaurant at the charming Old Port hotel Le Priori (17 rue Sault-au-Matelot). Warm and trendy décor. Our cuisine is inspired by flavours from around the globe. The chef/owner, Chistian Lemelin, develops the daily menu based on what he finds at the market. Help support local agrifood producers! The atmosphere in the main dining room differs from that in the private lounge. Large indoor garden with a covered terrace that is heated in season (Quebec Tourism).

So, next up was the main entrees.

So, I ordered the surf and turf of BBQ octopus and seared veal sweetbreads $ 38 (Created in 2014) Sautéed spatzel and grilled pepper, oyster mushroom, corn, cream, parmesan cheese, blacklong pepper sauce, soubise flavored with saltworth, celeriac salad, coppa.

Wow. Both BBQ octopus and sweetbreads were new to me, but I fell in love with both. I love the slight chew of the octopus - just a little. And the flavors were beyond. The sweetbreads were much softer but with a delicious sear and umami-laden sauce. Lighter touches with the celeriac and the spaetzel salad topped it off. I was really blown away by this meal. I was beyond happy with how delicious and different it was.

After how amazing the meal so far had been, I couldn't NOT get dessert. We went with the Goat Cheesecake, caramelized fig with honey & cardamom with ginger butter cookie, butternut sherbet and buckwheat nougatine.

I love that this dessert wasn't overly sweet, but it certainly felt indulgent. Caramel-y, but salty and creamy. Definitely the perfect way to end the evening.

Do yourself a favor - if there's one restaurant to stop at in Quebec City, it's this one

Charleston Restaurant Week is one of my favorite times of year! A bunch of restaurants in Charleston have a $30 fixed price point menu that is three courses (usually an appetizer, entree and dessert). It's a great way to try new restaurants, revisit old favorites and get a good deal on some of the pricier spots in town. 

The event, which began in 2014, was held this year from Jan. 23-28 - always held during the slow time for the restaurant business to help bring folks in. The week is sponsored by Buzz, with a lot of other folks helping contribute. And, it has a huge impact on the community - with an estimated 10,000 meals sold and half-million-dollar economic impact on the city in 2016. This year's celebration is estimated to be the biggest yet - but since it just wrapped up, it might be too early to tell.

The menus are available on the website, and reservations book up quickly. So, I always study what I want and make my calls accordingly. I managed to hit up two places this past year: Adventures Bar & Grill (which will be its own post since it's a new restaurant) and Dem 2 Brothers & A Grill. And while $30 may seem like a lot at the bbq restaurant, it's all about variety here and it's SO good, it's worth it to me.

Lots of other great restaurants participated: Adelphia Sports Bar & Grille, Adventures Bar & Grill, B&D Gastropub, Bluegrass Kitchen, Bricks & Barrels, Bridge Road Bistro, Celsius, Dem 2 Brothers & A Grill, Ichiban Pan-Asian Restaurant, Laury's, Leonoro's Spaghetti House, Mi Cocina De Amor, Paterno's at the Park, Quarrier Diner, Soho's at the Capitol Market, South Hills Market & Cafe, Su-Tei, The Block, The Chop House, Tidewater Grill.

There were really no bad options. I heard great things about South Hills Market & Cafe and Laury's and Paterno's -- man I wish I had the time to try Paterno's!

So, Dem 2 Brothers was good. So much food - but all absolutely delicious. I tend to forget about them because they're on the West Side; this is a perfect reminder to get there more.

So, where did you go for Restaurant Week? And, which were your standouts?

There were a few lovely places we stopped at during our trip to Quebec City, but maybe not long enough to warrant a full blog post. Instead, I wanted to jot down my memories, so this is my catch-all.

One of my favorite place was Fou du Bio, which was a cute little shop that had sausages, pate, charcuterie, honey, bread, maple products and more.

I so wanted to snag some of the various kinds of pate or cool shaped pasta, but we didn't have the means to keep it.

And, I love that there is maple everywhere! A nice little seating area kept us warm before heading to our next adventure.

La Fudgerie was another favorite. It was a super quick stop - but free samples! I had a little taste of a peanut butter fudge, which just so tasty!

And finally, Cafe Artefact is funny because it is actually the bar component for another restaurant we went to - Panache. It was New Year's Eve, and we had some time to kill before our dinner reservations, so we went to seven ... SEVEN different bars to try to get a drink, and we ended up right back at the place we previously had dinner.

Cafe Artefact was nice, though. They fit us in back in a more lounge area, and the drink I had was absolutely delicious.

Kir Panache: Chambord liquor, maple syrup, sparkling wine. It was sweet, bubbly and absolutely tasty. It may have been all that much better because it took 7 no's to finally get an adult beverage. And, we needed one after that :)

AND, how could I forget Inox? This is where we spent our New Year's ... that is, before heading out into the freezing temperatures to sing along to songs we didn't know and dance about.

West Virginia is making a name for itself in the culinary world. Our Appalachian restaurants – hearty, resilient, inventive – are receiving more and more praise. And, I certainly welcome it.

We have an abundance of lists via various websites ranking these restaurants. Best sandwiches or desserts or coolest atmosphere. I've had my taste of West Virginia restaurants in the form of fancy dinners and on-the-go hot dogs. I've had indulgent ice cream sundaes and delicate French desserts. I've had hot, fresh pepperoni rolls and expensive cuts of steak.

But, the best restaurants in West Virginia – for me – are the ones that are doing something different. Not the ones that are necessarily my personal favorites, but the ones that offer something new, unique, unexpected or otherwise iconic.

From hot dogs to haute cuisine, this is my take on our most unique restaurants here in the Mountain State. These include hometown favorites, classic and must-try eateries, each of the stalwart drive-ins and any one of our breweries that offers food. But I'm curious on your thoughts – comment below for your additions or deletions from the list!

1. Austin's Homemade Ice Cream (Ceredo)
With dozens of flavors to choose from – and tons of fun seasonal ones – it may be a tough decision. Don't let it be. They're known for their grape-pineapple.

2. Avenue Eats (Wheeling)

An old-fashioned soda fountain features homemade ice cream in the form of floats, shakes, sundaes, splits and cones. How fun.

It's an entire restaurant devoted to crepes: breakfast crepes, sweet crepes, light crepes. ALL THE CREPES.

As well known for their frozen custard as their hot dog chili, The Custard Stand is spread throughout our state and can always be counted on for one of the best dogs around.

25. DiCarlo's Pizza (Multiple Locations)

Where else can you find a bike shop and kitchen in one? Lewisburg, that's where.



43. Hill & Hollow (Morgantown)
A leader in the farm-to-table movement in West Virginia, Chef Marion Ohlinger continues to create global meals with Appalachian ingredients. Cool on every level.

44. Hillbilly Hot dogs (Lesage)
It's everything that outsiders think of when they think of West Virginia: hillbillies, broken down buildings and some questionable accents. But, there's something about that hillbilly tourism that keeps people coming back, and there's no denying that it's certainly one of the well-known restaurants in the state – even earning a spot on Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives.

45. Hinton Dairy Queen (Hinton)
Sure, Dairy Queens are a dime a dozen. But, if you've ever been to Hinton's, you know it's different. It is perched on the New River and has some of the tastiest English bun hot dogs.

This iconic spaghetti house is known for just pasta: Once their strawberry pie is in season, the line stretches around the block.

The coolest thing about this restaurant is it's right at the train station at Cass, which is a must-see for all West Virginians.

A craft brewery and pub nestled in the Potomac Highlands? Count me in. Inventive dishes that pair well with tasty beers is all I need.



57. Lot 12 Public House (Berkeley Springs)

66. North End Tavern & Brewery (Parkersburg)
The oldest restaurant and brewery in the state earns a spot for its longevity.

67. Parkway Drive In (Logan)
The last of three drive-ins in Logan, Parkway Drive In still stands out. Just order a cheeseburger: It's a grilled cheese that they open up to put the burger patty inside so that ooey gooey cheese is just perfect.

68. The Peanut Shoppe (Charleston)
Less of a restaurant and more of a shop, The Peanut Shoppe is an establishment in Charleston. It was established in 1950 and continues to churn out nuts and fresh popcorn daily and draws people in on scent alone.

69. Pho Vinh Long (South Charleston)
South Charleston has not one, but TWO Vietnamese restaurants. I would be remiss to not include both. For hot, comforting pho, don't miss Pho Vinh Long.

70. Pies & Pints (Multiple Locations)
West Virginia's most famous pizza place that started in Fayetteville and has created locations in both Charleston and Morgantown can't be beat. Their award-winning grape and gorgonzola pizza is to die for.

71. Pinnacle Drive Inn (Pineville)
Pinnacle Drive Inn is one of just a few drive-ins left in the state and for good reason. Try the submarine, which has turkey salad, bacon, lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise and cranberry sauce.

72. Pipestem's Mountain Creek Restaurant (Pipestem)
This restaurant is accessible by tram only, so if you want some good, gourmet dining, you have to ride the tram to the base, across from the Bluestone River. Dinner is always better with a side of adventure.

73. The Pizza Place (Parkersburg)
This Parkersburg institution dishes out thick, Sicilian-style pizza with those little pepperoni cups that turn up when baked. Mmmm.

74. The Pizza Station (St. Mary's)

75. The Poky Dot (Fairmont)

79. Rocco's Ristorante (Ceredo)
The best Italian food in North Central West Virginia has a counterpart a few hours away in Ceredo. Both from the same family, both serving up some of the best food you'll ever have.

80. Sandwich U (Morgantown)
Giant, overfilled, fried sandwiches are a necessary part of college, and I'm not sure there's anyone who does it like Sandwich U.

81. Secret Sandwich Society (Fayetteville)
This small, gourmet sandwich shop is one of West Virginia's worst-kept "secrets" – and for good reason! All of the sandwiches, named after dead presidents, offer something different and fun.

82. Sirianni's Pizza Café (Davis)
Located in a hundred-year-old steam ship office, Sirianni's Pizza Café has the locals' favorite pizza in a fun, eclectic environment.

83. Skeenies of West Virginia (Charleston)
In West Virginia, we take our hot dogs very seriously: chili, slaw, mustard and onions. And, it's likely that Skeenies is one of the first to help christen the idea that slaw belongs on a hot dog.

84. South Hills Market & Café (Charleston)
Modern Appalachian cuisine is served under the direction of Chef Rich Arbaugh, and every single item is made to perfection. Plus, they have some great cocktails.

85. Spring Hill Pastry Shop (Charleston)
Home of the hot dog – no, not that hot dog. The hot dog pastry is a donut or éclair that is elongated so it looks similar to a, well, hot dog.

86. Stardust Café (Lewisburg)
This extra green restaurant uses locally grown and harvested organic products. European butter, fresh local veggies, local artisan bread = a recipe for deliciousness.



87. Sterling Drive In (Welch)
The signature Sterling Sub is unmatched: cranberry sauce, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and their special "spread" on a deep-fried bun. Order it inside in the retro bright orange dining room or right from your car window.

88. Stewarts Original Hot Dogs (Kenova and Huntington)
This drive-in has two locations in southern West Virginia – both bright orange! Grab a hot dog and a root beer curbside.

91. The Tea Shoppe (Morgantown)
It's tea time – complete with loose-leaf teas, gourmet sandwiches and a variety of fun hats to play dress up in. Don't miss this afternoon tea.

92. Thyme Bistro (Weston)
This new American restaurant is unlike any other. Check out their bistro fries, which have garlic and parmesan and served with a smokey aioli for dipping.



93. Tip Top (Thomas)
One ranked as the best coffee shop in the state, TipTop serves up hand-brewed coffee with lots of specials depending on season. And that latte art!

94. Tricky Fish (Charleston)
This laidback, beach-shack restaurant is the perfect place for fish tacos, hushpuppies and a bucket of beer out on the deck as you watch Charleston pass by.

95. Tudor's Biscuit World (Multiple Locations)
West Virginia's most beloved biscuit comes in the form of Mary B or Peppi or Dottie. Whichever you choose, you can't go wrong with starting your day the homemade way.

96. Tunnel Drive-In (Williamson)
As one of the few drive-ins left in the state, Tunnel Drive-In is a step back in time. You can get your burgers, hot dogs and ice cream all from the comfort of your own car.

97. Wheeling Brewing Company (Wheeling)
Grab a beer. Get a delicious meal. Enjoy the local atmosphere.

98. Yama (Morgantown)
This hole-in-the-wall restaurant serves up some of the best one pot meals. Try the teriyaki chicken bowl.
