 Home of Buontalenti Gelato |
Viale dei Mille 20r Florence 50131 Italy +39 055 578 682 http://www.buontalenti.it/ |
Apparent by the double-parked cars out front, people come from all around to enjoy Badiani's. It is said that the much loved flavor Buontalenti was created here! This unique cream-flavored gelato was said to have been named after Bernardo Buontalenti, the famous Mannerist architect and artist. He is believed to have invented frozen dessert (made of cream and fruits) for the Medici's extravagant court banquets. Among the most popular flavors are: Buontalenti, Pinolata, Stracciatella...but there are many more including lighter fruit flavors. Also offering fresh pastries, the cream and apple sfogliatelle are well worth a trip. -Maria Frullini Review © 2007, Wcities |

Authentic Neapolitan Pizza in Florence |
Via del Giglio 28r Florence 50123 Italy +39 055 289 694 http://www.ciroandsons.com/ |
Originally from Naples, the Urbano family moved to Florence to open their restaurant and pizzeria that has since become popular with students, families and tourist groups. Housed in a palazzo once owned by the Aldobrandini (family of Pope Clement VIII), this restaurant fills two floors, has an impressive wine cellar and makes the most incredible pizzas in Florence. One of the few pizzerias in the city that makes certified vera pizza - "true Neapolitan pizza". Reservations are a must for Saturday nights. Review © 2007, Wcities |
