The biggest food market in old town Florence, located in San Lorenzo district, an area also famous for leather shops. At the Mercato Central you can buy food at the stands on the ground floor, or stop for lunch or dinner in the food court area upstairs. I would recommend this place because there's nothing similar in town.

One of the most typical Florentine restaurant in town. At the Casalinga you can still find some of the traditional but rare tuscan recepies. Familiar mood, delicious food!

I love this place because it offers a different pizza experience with alternative fish toppings. They have their own bakery which produces also very good bread and sweet pastries already in the morning.

Only classic flavours in this little shop so close to the Dome. It's a little more expensive comparing to others but the quality is unquestionable and the process of ice cream making has been handed down for generations.

A free entry church everyone should visit, especially for the breathtaking Cappella Sassetti painted by Domenico Ghirlandaio between 1482 and 1485. Scenes of San Francesco's life and the Medici family are represented in this masterpiece of the renaissance.

The Vasarian Corridor crosses this church on top of the chorus and the members of the Medici family usually stopped here to attend the mass without been seing by other people. At the entrance you can see the wonderful Deposizione by Pontormo, one of the most representative and innovative artist of the mature renaissance.

A must see place for all the art lovers. The frescoes made by three masters of the renaissance (Masolino, Masaccio and Filippino Lippi) are spectacular and make this little chapel of the Carmine Church an absolute gem.

Street Food

The Schiacciata is a typical florentine bread which is commonly use for delicious sandwiches. It's filled with tuscan ham or salami, local cheeses, vegetables and saouces, perfect with a glass of red wine. It's good, it's cheap and it's truly tuscan. Schiacciavino is one of the best place to try, also because the staff is very nice.
