France - Paris Again Day 1 - Gusto Italia

 As a change in cuisine, and that we were reminiscing about our trip to Italy two years ago, we went to Gusto Italia. The staff were friendly, casual and Italian. The last was important as we heard that the French like to cook their pasta past al dente. The owner cooked a little and served as well!
 We had a surprise starter of grilled vegetables but I ordered another plate and this came! Definitely got my vitamins that night!
 My wife got the caprese salad.
 My wife had the ravioli with some ham and cheese inside with spinach and ricotta, cream and more cheese. She said the house wine was good too.
I had the penne with a spicy tomato and caper sauce.

Delicious and inexpensive.
