A JEWEL- Italian Cheap Eat N Homemade Gelato 6th Arrond.!

Il Sorrentino 121, Rue de Sevres Metro Duroc Tel 01-43-06-79-43

In the 6th arrond. land of the chic boutiques and expensive restaurants lies a little jewel of a quick snack, pizza or ice cream/sorbet place. A great midday or early dinner stop. Real Italian Pizza made in a real pizza oven by REAL ITALIANS! There is a standing bar if you wish to eat there. Everything is homemade. From the delicious fresh pastas with real basil pesto or tomato sauce to the fabulous sorbets (passion fruit, melon, lime and the richest dark chocolate ice cream i have ever tasted). In fact this lovely place puts Berthillon to shame! Their prices are 1/2 of Berthillon and their servings are enormous! If you drink wine, they sell bottles and half bottles of delicious Italian wine for as little as 7 euros. We had two pizzas (huge we could have split 1), 1 half bottle of wine, 1 liter bottle of italian sparkling water, 1 sorbet to split all for 31 euros! This is a deal. They also have luncheon deals for very little including 1 pasta, 1 drink, 1 desert and bread. Don%26#39;t miss this if you are shopping in the area by Le Bon Marche or Montparnasse.

Thanks for this information, sounds great. We will look out for this when we go to Paris in September for the first time. More importantly we are staying not far from Duroc metro so any recommendations / ideas of good reasonably priced food is very welcome.

Last week, the restaurant situated at this address was called %26#39;CHENG%26#39; (and wasn%26#39;t italilain) (i didn%26#39;t go rue de Sevres this week)

Il Sorrentino is situated rue de Montessuy in the 7th

Cheno is right next door and still there. You are right, there is another Il Sorrentino in the 7th which is a restaurant, the owner is Josepina%26#39;s brother that owns that Il Sorrentino.

Cordially, Travelvixen
