Local restaurants
Since the 19th century, the long tables at Trattoria Sostanza at Via Porcellana 25r, near Santa Maria Novella in Florence (+39 055 212 691) have been tempting locals to squeeze in next to each other to enjoy hearty servings of the region’s tasty cuisine. Start with a simple Tuscan classic such as pasta in sauce or a beany peasant soup, then plump for a typical Florentine basic-but-delicious main course. Petti di pollo al burro is a house favourite – chicken breasts fried in butter. Laidback and beloved by those in the know.
Local bars
Music and art are at the heart of the bar, Dolce Vita at Piazza del Carmine, 6r in Florence (+39 055 284 595). And with cocktail service all day, surely Fellini would approve?
