After a few years spent in a number of renowned establishments in Quebec, Marc De Canck took the plunge and opened his own restaurant in March 1995. The young chef set up shop in a small space on Rue Laurier Ouest, where everything was beautiful and chic. But Marc De Canck is no stranger to challenges... and underneath the simple, sober exterior of a small bistro, he introduced inspired, gourmet cuisine of impeccable quality.

From then on, La Chronique became one of Montreal's top restaurants, and the reviews are always glowing and pertinent. In 1999, De Canck took the young Olivier de Montigny under his wing. Since then, the two have formed a high-flying duo, and while the "Master" has taught his pupil to take flight, the latter never ceases to pull his mentor towards new horizons.

In 2013, to celebrate its eighteenth anniversary, La Chronique got bigger and better, and moved to a new location. A sleek, contemporary decor, but always sober, because for the two chefs the goal remains the same: to put all their talent at the service of the quality of the products, so that in the end, "happiness is in the plate."
