La Calebasse restaurant and grocery shop was born of the desire to share African flavours with everyone, without borders or exclusions. The first African restaurant in Quebec City, the owners of La Calebasse are convinced that Africa, the cradle of humanity, has a wealth of gastronomic riches to discover.

Food can help us see others in a different way, it can take us into the intimacy of a little-known culture…

In Quebec, the story of La Calebasse began in the heart of the Sainte Foy district, close to Université Laval, a veritable breeding ground for cultural diversity.
