Originating from the village of Saint-Maximin in the heart of Provence, Nans fell in love with pastry from a young age.
After studying pastry at the foot of the hills of Provence, Nans worked for 12 years in prestigious establishments on the shores of the Mediterranean.
Having arrived in Saint-Henri several years ago, Nans gained various experiences in Montreal's finest pastry shops. The taste for entrepreneurship and the desire to introduce Provençal pastry to his Quebec friends led him to launch his own business to give them a taste of Provence.
As a pastry chef, but also an ice cream maker, chocolatier, and confectioner, Alexis is a jack-of-all-trades who puts his full range of skills at the service of taste.
With over 10 years of experience in prestigious French establishments in the south of France, Alexis set out to discover Quebec and the Saint-Henri neighborhood in Montreal. Leading a team of about ten people within a large Quebec pastry group, Alexis used all his talents to introduce new flavors.
Enticed by entrepreneurship, he joined Nans at "Un Instant en Provence" to introduce French pastry to as many people as possible.

La boutique est chaleureuse & donne immédiatement envie de goûter à tout . J'ai particulièrement adoré l'éclair au chocolat ainsi que le Paris Brest : goût, texture, tout était parfait. C'est une adresse que je recommande vivement .
Happy to have this cafe near by apartment. The almond croissant is incredible & I look forward to trying their other pastries! The staff are always super kind.

I really like this place & I have been here a few times. They make a nice vegan croissant & coffee :)
Un agréable endroit si vous cherchez à siroter un bon café & déguster de bon gâteaux frais, est variés!!
Very cozy place to have your delicious coffee + croissant! I tried the cookie & the cheddar croissant! Delicious! Anxious for my next visit! Love it!
Je reviens tout juste d'Aix-en-Provence, donc j'estime que l'univers m'a fait un petit clin d'oeil en me faisant tomber sur cette pépite.
Dès le premier regard, j'ai su que j'étais au bon endroit.
Les croissants sont aussi bons qu'ils sont beaux, idem pour les pains au chocolat & les chouquettes - qui ressemblent enfin à de vraies chouquettes !
C'est un peu cher, certes, mais je comprends qu'il faut bien vivre de son activité.
Great coffee & fantastic ambience. The owner was ever present & very hospitable. The food looked like it should have been on the he cover of a magazine. Can't wait to return.
Best coffee place in Saint Henri
Super friendly people & amazing food
My favourite is the cheddar croissant
The best almost croissant & croissant in Montreal. It's more than delicious. 🤤✨
Great pastries & service, it absolutely never disappoints. Bonus for the Tropeziennes, it really tastes like the one you find in Provence.
Un anniversaire mémorable grâce au St-Honoré formidable. Merci beaucoup. Ca fait bien 40 ans que nous allons à différents commerces pour trouver la perfection. Passez y voir & fiez vous à l'accueil & au service client. Vous en direz autant. MERCI.
« Pour ma part, c'est un rendez-vous quotidien dans cette boulangerie-pâtisserie, où je me régale avec un sandwich, du bon pain ou une délicieuse viennoiserie.
L'ambiance y est chaleureuse & le personnel est toujours accueillant & sympathique. »
The best pastry shop in MTL! Everything is tasty from the éclaire, to the meringue au citron, the crème brûlée & the coffee! They also have fresh squeezed orange juice! The place is aesthetically nice & the staff is friendly! :)
