Take a coffee break<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Situ\u00e9 \u00e0 Sainte-Brigitte-de-Laval<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amid all the shopping and preparations, make sure to give yourself a break. A chat over a nice cup of coffee at La Bulle Caf\u00e9-Boutique<\/a> is the perfect way to enjoy a small luxury that\u2019s all too scarce in December: a chance to take it easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stock up on treats to entertain your favourite people<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Situ\u00e9 \u00e0 Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyone enjoys a good holiday meal, but cooking everything from scratch can be a hassle. Luckily, Pasta Shop, R\u00e9my L\u2019artisan des viandes, and Pascal Le Boulanger<\/a> have your back. Pick up some quality ingredients, from fresh pasta and savoury meats to fresh-baked breads and desserts, so you can spend a little less time in the kitchen\u2026 and a little more with your guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have an aperitif<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Because sometimes, all you need is some sips and nibbles to start the holidays off right. Settle in at the Buvette du Moulin <\/a>as you put the world to rights over a meal, a drink, and a good conversation. What more could you need?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Treat yourself to a leisurely brunch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After a high-energy holiday party or New Year\u2019s festivities, nothing beats a slow morning. Head to Le Gourmet at the Manoir du Lac Delage <\/a>or Le Quatre-Temps at the Station Duchesnay<\/a> for a generous brunch, good coffee, and the simple pleasure of lingering over the morning together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stock the fridge with beer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

La Souche Stoneham<\/a>\u2019s local beers are great for afternoon gatherings, holiday dinners, and long nights around the table alike. It\u2019s a great way for your guests to get to know the area, one sip at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the holidays, the best moments aren\u2019t always the ones on your calendar. They\u2019re often the ones that stretch out a bit: one more cup of coffee, a second helping, or a long conversation around the table. This year, fill your plate with local treats, but make sure to save some room for what really matters: good times with the people you love..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
