The weekend in Rome isn't happening anytime soon, but we can always console ourselves with the good Italian addresses that offer aperitivo in Paris: delicious antipasti and all the rest, for the price of a good glass of Spritz or white wine. A quick trip to Italy...
Les Cagettes
Behind the bar of the former P'tit Cou de la Girafe, Mickaël and Olivier. Their specialties? The sharing baskets, filled with delicious local products to share as tapas for the aperitif. For lunch, we drool over their Italian-inspired sandwiches, like the gourmet one with burrata Ottanta, jambon prince de Paris, truffle cream, and arugula, or mortadella and pistachio pesto... And if you want to cook, the products are available in the well-sourced grocery section. On the wine side, they have a great selection of natural wines, as well as a few homemade cocktails, including infused gin and tonics. Tried and loved, you will surely bump into us there! P.S.: The place is open continuously.From 12pm to 11pm, and between us, it's one of the best spots to enjoy the late afternoon sun.
Every Thursday from 5pm, The Musical Grocery turns to an Italian ambiance until 9pm to say "buongiorno" to the approaching weekend. For a delicious glass of wine, you can enjoy an all-you-can-eat Italian buffet! All while listening to music. Whether it's to change the air during a meal, a brunch (only €20 for all you can eat!) or a typically Italian aperitivo, offered from 6:30pm - 8:30pm, Ma'Lucia has its doors wide open to delight the whole neighborhood. Buona giornata! as Lucia would say to passersby. For fans of delicious apéritifs, head to Lockwood. This lovely bar offers a generous charcuterie platter every evening from 6pm. Ham, sausages, and other pâtés will satisfy your hunger. Beyond the pizzas that will delight your taste buds, Pi-Hour is above all a really cool concept mixing pizza and "happy hour" spirit. Every Tuesday evening, the place transforms into an Italian tapas bar with its "aperitivo" - which includes unlimited pizzas for the whole evening for the price of 15 euros, including a first drink. Whether alone or with a friend, we love snacking on "cicchetti," Italian tapas to share. Our favorites include the sticks of polenta to dip in confit onions, the fried calamari, and the chef's soft Crescentine (inflated dough with parmesan cream and fennel seeds). Whether you prefer Spritz or a glass of wine, there's no doubt that you'll love sipping on the terrace with a platter of delicious Italian charcuteries for €15. And for all the best aperitivo plans, visit the Ma Terrazza website!
