The Best ice cream in Paris

Bonjour tout le monde!
Earlier this week, I read that Raymond Berthillon died at the age of 90.  He was the founder of Berthillon's, home of the best ice cream in Paris.
Many Paris fans know all about Berthillon's, located on the Ile Saint-Louis.  The ice cream shop has been in the same place for 60 years, just at the end of the bridge that links the Ile de la Cite and Ile Saint Louis at the back of Notre Dame.  Normally, the shop is open continually from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm, however if you are gong to be in the capital during the month of August, you are out of luck.  That is because the famous ice cream spot is closed from 27July to 3 September.
Every time we go to Paris, a visit to Berthillon's is on the must do list.  In 2012, Michael and I were in the city with my last Prep student travel group.  It was a free day, the kids had given me their itineraries so the adults had the day to themselves.  Michael's cousin Tommy and his now wife Wanda were also with us, so after cruising by Notre Dame, we walked across the bridge to Berthillon's.  Sometime during the morning, I inherited one of my students, so our group of five found ourselves standing in front of the shop trying to decide which flavors (parfums in French).
Berthillon's renown goes far and wide.  If you look at the Trip Advisor, it is the #4 top attraction on their Paris list, and for good reason.  The ice cream is delicious.  There are over 70 different ice cream flavors, in addition to the sorbets.  My favorite ice cream flavor is vanilla, but there are contenders - amaretto and grand marnier come in second!  Wanda loves ice cream, so that day in Paris, we spent almost 45 minutes at the shop, because the minute that she finished one flavor, she was back in line to try another.  I can't tell you how many different tastes we tried that day, except to tell you that they were all really good.
If you have been to Paris, but not to Berthillon's, then you have not experienced all there is.  If you have been there, what is your favorite flavor?  Rum raisin?  Lavender?  Let the commentary begin!
