This is the same place we went last year. They renovated it ALL. It's very nice looking, clean and has some kind of fresh feeling to it. I liked it a lot, it was a fun gathering, but if my friends from overseas came to Canada and told me they want to experience a true Canadian sugar shack, I don't think I would take them there.
Not because it's not good, but because it doesn't inspire, true, "good old" sugar shack. Anyway. Let's go on with... pictures!
In the little shack at the back... maple sugar on a stick! (I'm really not sure how they call it in english, in french it's "de la tire".)
This was so random I had to take a picture.
Yes. It's a chair on the ceiling... Not too sure why...

It was good times! I really enjoy going to the sugar shack. Usually the maple sugar season starts in March and ends in mid or end of April, depending on the weather.
When it's time for the maple sugar, the sap from the tree is clear. When the sap becomes white, it means the season's over!
Had you ever heard of sugar shacks?
Have you been to one? Would you like to try it out?

this is probably the only kinda thing i miss from home... even though i almost never go, it's one thing that is truly... from home :p
btw, let me know if you find out how you call "de la tire" in English! people are always asking me here, and obviously they can't pronounce the french word, so... lol!
Nice shots!!! I would like to try that Sugar pie!!!!
Wow chanceuse ça l'avait l'air bon!
Je suis allée à une cabane à sucre comme on dit si bien il y a une semaine ou deux et... c'était DÉGUEULASSE. C'était cher, les serveuses étaient très désagréables et je n'ai rien mangé du repas mis à part des cornichons (wtf pourquoi il y en avait? xD), de la tarte au sirop d'érable et des crêpes (et c'était le dessert..lol).
Disons que j'en garde un mauvais souvenir... Je n'avais même plus envie de manger de la tire après ça omg hahaha
La mienne était plus old style mais c'était vraiment mauvais (et c'était plein de gens et il manquait de place..) Bref, je pourrais chialer encore longtemps LOL
Contente que la tienne a été super en tout cas :3
oh gosh the food photos got me really hungry! have a nice day!!
lovely food photos, it makes me hungry hehe
Ahhhh I wish we had one near me!! I didn't know what they were called but the syrup in snow I've seen before & always wanted to do it but I never lived north enough that it's a 'thing' around where I live.
