About 8 years ago we were in line for customs at the US/Canada border at 9 PM. Our alternator was giving out and our battery died right at the customs window! We called AAA and the customs agent closed up his window and left us there until we were rescued. The tow truck operator asked if we wanted to be towed to Quebec or back to NY. We chose Quebec, so he recommended staying at Le Douglas which also had a restaurant. We were so enchanted by the cozy atmosphere and good hearty food (we ordered the escargot and 2 pizzas) that we now make this our regular stop after the border crossing. The breakfast is always a highlight of our trip. Fresh eggs, hearty toast, and friendly service. It's a good place to start warming up my basic French although English is spoken. We have had our share of what I call "AAA vacations" (because of unplanned breakdowns) and this was our favorite.
