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.

We were recomended this place as'the best bakery in Montreal' & while im not sure it deserves that title, it was pretty good. The atmosphere was really nice with lots of natural lighting, real plants, & well palced decor that worked with their theme. The staff was super friendly & since we didnt know what to get they gave a few recomendations. The chocolate pastry was flaky & light & decently fresh. I usually like the pastries that are a bit chewy or carmelized so maybe I should have gotten something else but it was still pretty good overall.
Très très bonne boulangerie. Prix très raisonnable pour la qualité!
Je recommande fortement.
Very welcoming, beautiful place & very warm service. I loved it & the coffee/ the pastries were amazing! 12/10
Je vais dans ce café presque quotidiennement, le staff & les produits sont exceptionnels. Pour moi, de loin les meilleurs croissants en ville. De plus, le fait qu'on voit le staff préparer le tout en cuisine derrière justifie de loin le prix de certains produits. Il y a plusieurs cafés dans le coin & les prix restent très compétitifs. Les gens qui se plaignent des prix sont probablement habitués à prendre leur café au McDo ou Tim Hortons, j'ai du mal à comprendre.
Bravo à l'équipe!
Been going here since they've opened. top quality pastries.Thank you for every delish bites.
The Suisse & the chausson aux pommes were such a delight.
Also, really good iced latte!. 🥐☕?
Delicious pastry shop. Strong, quality coffee, excellent service. Strong wifi & ambiance. Truly a great pastry shop/cafe. I came on a Tuesday & it was perfect pace, but too busy but still some others working around me I felt inspired. I got a decaf americano & a suisse pastry. The pastry so so good. It was like a sweetened savory one but in a good way with good balance in flavor...a bit pricey around 8 dollars for one, but was good. The decaf americano was also good. They also make a homemade chai. It's subtly sweet & spicy, good drink as well. Highly recommend!
Pâtisserie toujours excellente.
Un reproche lors des commandes pour tartes ou gâteaux: la forme 10/12 personnes n'existe pas
J'ai découvert la boulangerie grâce à un Too good to go en 2024. Le pain & les viennoiseries étaient vraiment bons. Dernièrement, j'ai acheté des pâtisseries, toutes délicieuses. Mention spéciale pour la fleur d'agrumes ! Je reviendrai !
Excellente pâtisserie & environnement incroyable pour les connaisseurs ;-)
vaut vraiment le déplacement pour un bon latté & un bon gâteau!
nous reviendrons comptez sur nous :-)
