Restaurant Europea, A Rare Culinary Gem To Discover In Montreal by photographer Hera Bell

Their story in Montreal started 11 years ago.

After graduating from Vatel in Nimes,3 young friends  Jerome Ferrer, Patrice De Felice and Ludovic Delonca. opened their own restaurant together in st Cyprien.France.

When some of their Canadian clientele encouraged them to move to Canada, they have sold the restaurant and took the trip towards Montreal. Sadly they got robbed along the way. So they landed to Montreal 11 years ago almost with nothing.

Their love of culinary adventures and strong will brought them today where they are.

They will soon be crowned by getting into the list of the very prestigious group of   Les Grandes Tables Du Monde.   Europea  will be first Canadian restaurant accepted to become a part of this prestigious group.

They are 3 partners. Two are chefs. They work long hours and they are consumed to make your experience something very unique.   Your visit will be a culinary  extravaganza visually and gastronomically. It is a must go place.

Each plate is a marvelous visual puzzle to discover first, then a gastronomic marvel to experience.

Here is their Prestige menu we had that evening.  To see it larger please click on to the image. They change their menu every 4 months. Their Fall menu is now being served.

I hope you will enjoy my poor quality snap shot photography done under very dim and harsh available lighting. I could only photograph the plates as they brought them in front of us from my seat at a busy table.



 

























 


Before the deserts we were  invited to their kitchen that evening. It was another highlight of our evening.






The deserts were spectacular and tasty.
