I’ve only visited a couple of sugar shacks since moving back to Quebec in 2005, and I have to say, Cabane à Sucre Lalande is the best. Today I’m sharing our family’s fun adventure at the sugar shack.
Cabane à sucre Lalande
We hadn’t been sugar shackin’ in such a long time. But this year I really wanted to go. We ended up going to Cabane à Sucre Lalande for two reasons; cost, and distance from our house. Saturday was the perfect day to go sugar shackin’. Perfect sunny weather and everyone was in a great mood.
We started off by visiting the little farm where they kept the donkey, the lamas, and some ducks. It was already noon, and I was starving, so we made our way to the dining room. The place is HUGE! When we got there, it wasn’t full, but by the time we were done the place was packed.
All you can eat!!!!
p.S You haven’t truly lived until you’ve eaten cabane à sucre food smothered in maple syrup.
After eating WAY too much, we made our way outside for a horse carriage ride. The last time I did that was in 2014 when I visited St-Louis.
To end our fantastic day, we enjoyed some delicious maple syrup on a stick (la tire d’érable). Which is hot maple syrup over ice that we scoop up on a stick! One word: Ah-MAZING!!
If you’re ever in Quebec in early spring, I highly suggest you stop by Lalande. Great ambiance, delicious food, and fantastic service.
I made a home video of our day at the sugar shack. Be sure to check it out below!

I have never heard of a “sugar shack”, but I know there is a place local to me that is called that so now I definitely want to check it out.

It looks like you had a really good family day with your family. All of the meals you consumed look darn delish as well.

That place looks awesome! I love that there were hotdogs included for breakfast. My husband is Filipino and we eat hot dogs, eggs, and rice on most mornings 🙂

What a wonderful day!!! I’ve never heard of sugar shacking, but it sounds like everything forbidden and wonderful, all at the same time 🙂
