My first time to Florence was in July -92 and it just felt right. I loved everything I saw and all...

One of the most exiting things about travelling is experiencing different flavours. Many travellers coming to Italy for the first time think that there is only one Italian cuisine. Nothing could be more wrong! Every region has its own local cuisine and Florence is definitely not an exception. But there is something all Italians agree upon; food is life! The San Lorenzo area is MY neighbourhood and the San Lorenzo Market is where I go for food. We will taste some pecorino cheese, cold cuts, extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar and have a look at local food such as the amazing "bistecca fiorentina". We will go to Ivana's bakery where I daily get fresh bread, pizza and cookies and we will try some of her delicious specialities. Ivana is a living legend in the area and is still always around despite her age (which is a secret!). I'll show you the famous wine windows and we'll stop for some good chocolate before we reach one of the oldest gelato places in town.
Food tour - The San Lorenzo area and the Mercato Centrale (Food Market): - We visit the food market of San Lorenzo called the Mercato Centrale where there will be samples of pecorino cheese, cold cuts, extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Feel free to purchase whatever you want! - Stop at one of the oldest Bakeries in Florence to try some local bread (schiacciata and coccoli) and typical sweet cookies. - I'll take you to one of the numerous wine windows in town and you will learn the history of this unique way of selling wine in Florence. - Praline samples in the best Cioccolateria in Florence. - Gelato downtown to end our tour.
