pozzetto.jpgI have been going to Pozetto's for my gelato now for almost two years, but for some reason I keep forgetting to put it in here aside from a blog mention during a heat wave. I will go across Paris for this gelato. I will shamelessly point it out to tour clients (and *none* of them can resist, especially after the friendly servers let them try the fresh pistachio, the creamy guianduia, the snappy speculous, the amazing citron...). There are only 12 flavors, made fresh daily, and served by the cone or by the cup, not by the scoop, so you can have them mix as many flavors as you want.

Being Italian, they also do some amazing coffee (I know there are a lot of you out there who can't bear the French version of coffee, so do try it here). They're open year-round until midnight. The rue de Lappe location is open in the summer, and I've even seen a little Pozetto stand in front of BHV in the summer.

I could eat gelato for every single meal, every single day. When are they going to open a location on the Left Bank?!!
