Al Taglio 2 - Paris 3e Arrondissement

To most Americans, pizza is either thin crust (Neopolitan) or thick crust (Sicilian). Here is Roman crust, medium. Bonchi's in Rome, made famous by Anthony Bourdain and by Bonchi himself is athe Platonic pizza toward which all pizza strives. Bonchi has a national tv show in Italy. But here it is in Paris! As other reviewrs have mentioned, the pizza is sold by weight. It's mainly take-out at the Oberkampf location. Don't know about the other.

Small pizza place nearby the Oberkampf station. Very tasty pizzas, not expensive for Paris. Good service.

A Parisian friend led me to this somewhat out-of-the way restaurant. I'm not a pizza fan, but this is NOT pizza as you know it. The crust is thin and crisp, and the toppings were really interesting and delicious. You point to what you want at the counter and indicate how much. They cut it and heat it and bring it to your counter-type seat. If you are in the Marais or near Republique, make a point of finding this place with not a very bright sign on a side street. They also seem to do a brisk take-out business if that suits your needs.

On m'en avait fait tout un foin de la pizza a la truffe... Garniture inexistante, plus de pate qu'autre chose, c'est sec, service long... Bref une fois pas deux!

Nous avons pris des pizzas à emporter. Celle au fromage n'était pas fraîche, celle au jambon pas bonne même en rajoutant sauce tomate et fromage. Par contre le personnel était sympathique.
