The 22 Best Restaurants In Florence - Florence - The Infatuation

"Sure, there are Italy-shaped limoncello bottles and statue of David pasta souvenirs at the Mercato Centrale, Florence’s central market. Avoid all that, the student crowds, and tour groups and head to Da Nerbone for lunch. The casual stand opened in 1873 and is one of the last remnants of old Florence in the market serving street food classics like lampredotto, the city’s famed stomach sandwich, stewed bollito panini, and bowls of ribollita soup. It’s one of the few places where you’ll see local blue-collar workers and tourists together, and it’s worth waiting for any of those dishes in the constant line. They also do pretty good plates of roast turkey and wild boar pappardelle pasta if you don't want to put some stomach in your stomach." - coral sisk, georgette jupe
