In search of the ‘real deal’
OVERVIEW
If you are a foodie and you have a liking for different food traditions, this experience is definitely for you. Today, you will in fact have the opportunity to taste typical Florentine foods in local markets and fiaschetterie (‘vintage’ small wineries), places that are often more hidden to large crowds of tourists. They offer a very simple ambience, wooden chairs and wooden tables, genuine foods. True Florentine classics, where locals usually go. It is the real deal, our mission for the day!
Food samples vary depending on the season. You may discover the amazing taste of fried sage leaves or zucchini flowers, or even fried porcini mushrooms. Crostini and samples of pecorino cheese with cold cuts would never be missing. Also lampredotto and trippa are real Florence street food classics. Not to mention historical cafeterias where coffee culture is a serious affair. A cup of hot chocolate will be a pleasant surprise, as much as a wide variety of espresso and cappuccino. Italian style. No worries: we always adapt our experiences to the travellers’ requirements.
