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.

À découvrir! Excellent service & produits frais & authentiques. Pâtisseries à la lavande surprenantes dans le bon sens du terme. Endroit propre. Que de bons mots sur cette charmante place.
Bonne endroit pour se reposer pendant une marche, par contre j'aurais aimé la crème brûlée avec le caramel à cassé 🤤
Une ambiance très agréable avec des serveurs tout aussi agréable. Les pâtisseries sont succulentes & pas trop sucré. Les prix sont abordable pour qualité très haute. 😊
Tout est parfait dans ce petit coin de Provence ! Des pâtisseries, aux services en passant par la déco rien n'est laisser au hasard.
Super nice staff. Great selection. Everything I have tried is so good & fresh. One of the best croissant I have tasted in my life.
Excellents croissants & éclairs. Ingrédients de bonne qualité. Très bon service.
Enorme coup de coeur, 5 etoiles pour tout! Les croissants & chocolatines sont délicieux, généreux & aussi beaux que bons. Le café filtre est excellent aussi (bien corsé). La formule baguette petit déjeuner, c'est frais, croustillant, excellent choix de confiture, un sans faute. Le service est souriant, sympathique, ca fait du bien de se sentir accueilli. & que dire du decor, un baume sur le coeur, pas juste pour les expat nostalgiques de la Provence :), c'est propre & lumineux. Bref, une boulangerie/patisserie/café où l'on s'y sent bien, c'est délicieux & les prix sont raisonnables. Je conseille sans hésiter & on reviendra c'est certain. Merci 🫶🏻
Absolutely amazing food & service- the staff was super friendly & sweet!! Went twice during our trip because we loved it so much
The mochaccino was very good, la suisse au framboise also 👌, the personal was nice & the ambiace was agréable & peaceful, the decor was on point .
Very nice place & they were so kind. The pastries are super fresh!! Definitely coming back with friends
C'est un beau petit café de quartier ça ! Jetait plutôt indécis sur le breuvage que j'avais envie & j'ai très bien été conseillé par la personne. J'ai beaucoup aimé mon café.
Meilleur croissant que j'ai mangé depuis plusieurs années. Parfaitement équilibré.
For all you fans of all things French & authentic to French pastries, this is the spot! The flavours are spot on the coffee is a beautiful selection of teas as well as a very Provence atmosphere that takes you miles away. The owners are very kind & very good at service making sure of all the details. Refreshingly devoted to the presentation & quality of food not to mention how spotless clean their kitchen is this place allows me to give 100%. The Pain au chocolat & the fondant as well as anything else you'll have here is not overly sweet nor is it Nutella filled. Again, very authentic. See for yourselves & visit at 4835 Notre Dame in Saint-Henri, Montreal.
Une des meilleures boulangeries pâtisseries que j'ai testé à Montréal. Grand choix. En tant que française je valide à 100%
This is a totally instagrammable restaurant. The pastries are great. I found the coffee a little bit too strong for my liking but overall I enjoyed my experience here.
