Trattoria Da Ruggero

Restaurant · Bobolino

"It may look modest, but Da Ruggero serves some of the best traditional food in town. The menu is stocked with perfectly prepared Florentine classics with the odd seasonal variation. The hand-written menu offers the likes of liver-topped crostini and platters of Tuscan salami, hearty soups like the bread- and cabbage-based ribollita, pasta with truffles or porcini mushrooms (depending on the season), and grilled salsicce (spicy sausages) with white beans. It’s all hearty and delicious. Just be prepared for a bit of a trek, as it’s located outside the city center. The off-radar location guarantees that not many tourists make it this far, but Ruggero is always packed with locals here for the good, honest home cooking (booking ahead is essential). Low-level chat accompanies serious chowing down; this is not a party spot, but a place to sample the best of the rustic local cooking." - Nicky Swallow
