Morgan McHugh

Growing up in a household filled with successful food enthusiasts – a father known for owning Yorkville’s famous Penny Farthing Café in the ’60s – it comes to no surprise that Torontonian Morgan McHugh inherited this passion. Morgan and Nadège met while living in London, England, aspirations to open a patisserie of their own lead them back to Toronto. Morgan’s OCAD background in Fine Arts and his extensive building experience played a key role in making NADÈGE what it is today.
