Île Flottante

Île Flottante

This inspired restaurant (formerly Les Deux Singes de Montarvie) has its roots in French cuisine. The choice of dishes is limited, with a selection from 2 options only: the tasting menu, or the vegetarian tasting menu. This limitation is however a guarantee of quality, and everything here is in season and beautifully prepared. It is a culinary experience like no other.

Europea might make you think the best French cuisine is not in Paris or anywhere in France, but right here in Montreal! Chef Jérôme Ferrer, who learned to cook by his grandmother's side, has never since left the kitchen and now shares his talent and passion with anyone who wishes to dine at his restaurant. Spanish, Italian and Catalan influences enhance the French flavours, for a truly extraordinary experience.
