LITTLE ITALY
Decades ago, Montreal’s largest cultural community settled in this area, far from the hustle and bustle of downtown, where they could afford to buy real estate, grow fruits and vegetables, hunt, and make their own wine.
Although today our 264,000 Italians largely live elsewhere in the city, Little Italy remains a major draw with its great coffee shops and restaurants, exquisite church, Milano’s grocery store selling authentic Italian products and, of course, the Jean Talon Market – Canada’s largest outdoor farmers’ market.
Step into this most colourful and fragrant neighbourhood and discover its institutions as well as some hidden gems.
