Tourtière is a Québécois Christmas tradition. This bistro owner brought it south of the border
Tourtières is typically enjoyed during the Québécois tradition of Réveillon, a big feast late Christmas Eve. When rising chef Hugue Doufur met his wife, a meat distributor in Queens, he brought that tradition over the border to New York. Now, people who come to his bistro to order it at Christmas are part of what he calls "The Club."
