Michele Forgione Confirms Chez Tousignant Little Italy Snack Bar Plan

The worst-kept secret in Little Italy was made official over the weekend. Stefano Faita and Michele Forgione will soon expand their neighbourhood restaurant empire (Impasto, Pizzeria Gema) with a casse-croûte, Chez Tousignant, in partnership with Impasto chef de cuisine Yann Turcotte. The address has yet to be divulged but word is that it will be in a former café on Drolet between Bélanger and Mozart, steps from Jean-Talon Market. Forgione took to Instagram on Sunday to make the announcement.

Did I mention to you that we're opening up a snack bar and that you'll be able to get burgers like this? It's gonna be called #cheztousignant and you should definitely follow the mastermind behind it all @cheztousignant (Yann tousignant Turcotte).
