Florence is a culinary paradise. With its excellent meats and cheeses, wine and olive oil from the region, meals are generally of high quality. One cannot help to wonder why a simple Caprese Salad (mozarella and tomates) just seems to taste so much better here than anywhere else.
From Michelin star locations to family restaurants run with a great passion, cozy bistros, hip wine bars and stylish cafes this city has so much to offer. You will find a huge Bistecca Fiorentina to feed the entire family, a quick panini "to -go" with heavenly prosciutto, a typical italian style gelato that will have you melting away or a delicious Antipasti plate to accompany your aperitivo.
Some of the best places are hidden. Wonderful locations in old wine cellars, or workshops with only a small sign outside, which you can barely see. Or sometimes even no sign at all.
