Untitled in Florence


Restaurant Pictures on The Sly

This is a great restaurant . I went there 2 days in a row and brought Jean and Bill on the 2nd Day.
The waiters were a bit crabby, but the food is exceptional. It's right near Santa Croce and is called Il Maremma...which is a region south of Florence. I was embarrassed to be taking pictures so they are really quick snaps of no quality. 
I want to make that fresh pea soup.

We met at The Ufizzi and then had a wonderful lunch. It was so nice catching up.

Vivoli Gelato, Best Gelato in the world ( in Florence)

They have the most amazing Chocolate Orange Gelato. I rarely eat desert, but this, I cannot pass up. It was nice and peaceful when I entered. I sat down on a green velvet chair, savoring the gelato and suddenly, in come 50 kids. I could not get out it was so jammed up.
