Chef of the Auberge Saint Aintoine restaurant, Quebec City
Chef Lucas Brocheton, Culinary Director and executive chef at Auberge Saint-Antoine in Quebec, offers innovative cuisine. Rooted in the use of seasonal ingredients and respect for nature, he passionately elevates each product. He favors local partnerships that share his values, ensuring quality and freshness in every dish.
“Through my cuisine, I strive to tell the story of Quebec’s terroir by elevating its local, seasonal ingredients. Each dish is an invitation to explore rich traditions while infusing creativity and modernity. My goal is to forge a deep connection between nature and the plate, with authenticity and respect.”
Chef Brocheton curates a distinctive farm-to-fork experience. He crafts seasonal menus using hyper-local ingredients sourced directly from the Auberge's own farm, La Ferme du Côteau on Île d'Orléans, offering guests an authentic taste of Québec.
This seamless integration of farming and fine dining reflects a holistic, eco-conscious approach, aligning perfectly with Veuve Clicquot’s Garden Gastronomy program, which celebrates chefs who champion sustainability and craft cuisine deeply rooted in nature.

He elevates seasonal ingredients with simplicity to highlight their natural flavors. By prioritizing local and artisanal products, he creates a strong connection between the land and the plate. At Auberge Saint-Antoine, each seasonal menu honors Quebec’s rich culinary heritage.

This approach invites a rediscovery of taste through a truly authentic culinary experience. The chefs’ creativity is expressed through the celebration of garden-grown ingredients—freshly harvested fruits and vegetables—echoing those cultivated in the Maison’s emblematic kitchen garden at the Manoir de Verzy.
