Norca sits on the second floor of Le Germain Hotel Ottawa — the name means "NORthern cuisine, CAnadian ingredients." Chef James Bratsberg runs a farm-to-table program with house-made fermentations (miso, kimchi, charcuterie), natural wines, and a tight cocktail list. Elegant but not formal, it works equally well for a bar-only visit or a full dinner.
