About Food Love Generation

Canadian company established in 2021 and created by Jacques Gaspo, co-founder of Foodtastic and the leading force behind some of the most avant-garde restaurant concepts in the country and Lino Lozza of Buonanotte fame. Together they founded the fast casual concept Jack Le Coq, the first 100% Quebec fried chicken brand.

With handmade recipes and local produce, combined with their 20 years of restaurant experience, they have succeeded in creating a must-have brand for fried chicken lovers. With 5 locations across the Greater Montreal Region and several more under construction, Jack Le Coq continues its ascent and makes a healthier turn with its grilled chicken and protein bowl offerings.
