Le Petit Alep is a Syrian-Armenian restaurant in the Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension borough of Montreal, Canada.
Le Petit Alep was established in 1995 by sisters Chahla and Tania Frangié, along with Chahla’s husband, Jean-François Potvin. The Frangié family has a mixed Syrian and Armenian heritage, and the founders sought to reflect both cultural influences in the restaurant’s cuisine.[1]
Before the launch of Le Petit Alep, the location was home to a small five-table establishment called Restaurant Alep, operated by the Frangiés' father, Georges Frangié. The siblings took over the family business, expanded its concept, and reopened it under its current name.[1]
Tania and Chahla continue to run the kitchen of the restaurant, occasionally with the assistance of their mother, Jacqueline.[2]
