Around 1930, in the Southern French town of Brissac, the Monna family ran a store called Source la Monnaguette that sold liquor, wine and lemonade. Upon finding a bottle dating from this era at the bottom of a river, Catherine Monna was inspired to pay tribute to her ancestors by using this name for her little gourmet shop.
Stop for a culinary treat at La Monnaguette and enjoy its charming terrace wonderfully decorated with beautiful flowers and offering a spectacular view of the Île d'Orléans bridge. Come anytime in the summer and discover a thousand and one ways to enjoy black currants.
