About La Belle Excuse
La Belle Excuse is a family business in Saint-Liguori, in the Lanaudière region. It brings in olive oil from its own groves in Greece and uses it to make vinaigrettes. The result is a direct link between a family olive grove abroad and kitchens in Quebec.
La Belle Excuse suits home cooks who like to know where their olive oil comes from. Drizzle it over a summer salad of Quebec tomatoes and cucumbers, or use a vinaigrette for a quick weeknight meal. A bottle also makes a practical, welcome gift for a host or a friend who loves to cook.
