Lovely. Yes, the bread is tasteless… but they turn it into delicious dishes. The panzanella bread salad made traditionally is more like a tabouleh.

Indeedo. It's fascinating, the bread is so perfect for cooking! The panzanella is great too. Very trendy ATM though. It's why I went for the pomodorro 😉x

Love that you reviewed the Bistecca alla Fiorentina. Last time I was in Florence (ages ago) I had that loin steak at a restaurant called Perseus - best restaurant experience of my life (but also not a bargain…)

Looking forward to returning to this guide next time I’m in Florence !

Hey Henry, yah it's not a bargain but worth it, and cheap at sabatinos that I link there! I've been buying them at the butchers in Tuscany and cooking them myself. I'm on number 4 this trip 😉
