Tourists Miss These Florence Food Spots – Don’t Be One!

This sandwich shop is great! The sandwich is Amazingly delicious!!! We ordered in Las Vegas NV. Get there early! Bon Appetito !

Just returned from Italy. Three weeks in Perugia and two nights in Florence. Loved Trattoria Sabatino. Would’ve never known about it without your recommendation. Thank you!

Visiting Florence right now. Sandwiches are great but if you want great food, wine & beer choices at reasonable prices, get yourself to Mercato Centrale! It's a one stop shop for everything food.

My wife and I were in Florence last week. We went to both gelaterias you mentioned. Another one we loved is Gelateria Artigianale La Sorbettiera on Via del Leone. Crema and stracciatella were my favorite flavors.

I just wonder how you stay so slim the way you eat 😂

You might think people who come back from Italy talking about the food are exaggerating. Then you go to Italy and come back, and you sound like a blubbering idiot trying to describe how good the food is. I've eaten wonderful sandwiches 5 euro sandwiches in tiny train stations in the middle of nowhere. And I know what I'm talking about. Italian American mom, 5 Italian American aunts, dozens of Italian American friends I grew up with. I KNOW Italian food, and when I say there is NOTHING like the food in Italy....well, I find it hard to ever go out for Italian food in the US anymore. The best Italian food in the US is like an average Italian restaurant in Italy. No joke. And the gelato...oh my, gelato.

We wandered through Centrale Mercato where there are dozens of nick knack shops and hawker stands. We had the most delicious plate of cold cuts and pasta for like $20 Euros. Would have paid 100 for it and thought it was worth it. The Italians are simply masters when it comes to food.

Sai qual'e' il significato di Passera in Toscana? 😂😂

Salami nella schiacciata, sembra prosciutto toscano 😅 , comunque sei bravo a spiegare ❤ , amico mio abito in texas, e vederti mangiare il cibo buonissimo della mia Toscana ❤ ,mi metti voglia di tornare in Italia 🇮🇹

Hi Gregor, thank you very much for your great advise. I just found out that your link to "Trattoria da Giorgio" leads again to "Il Contadino". Maybe you want to correct it. ... Cheers

Hi Sweden :) sauce boss

Heading back for the fourth time in March! I’m watching everything you post! Molto bene!

Looking forward to try the Florence sandwich

Am I missing the links of the restaurants reviewed?

Antico vinaio is on my list !!

How cool, you give a brief explanation and history of the cafés, bars. The cow `stomach could not do it. Spanish eat it as well. “Pancita“ People usually, eat it after a weekend of crazy party.. Paninos are really good!
In Italy you can breathe art, from the architecture, interior design, fashion and of course food! It is a great place. My favorite, the south, i was amazed by the food, and the beaches. Love Italy. Looking forward to going back soon! 👌

Wait... how long did you end up waiting for the sandwich?

Hi....I recently visited Florence...Rome and Naples. Our South African currency 😢 R20 to the Euro. It was rough

I have been to Florence/Firenze twice, and was feeling "been there, done that". But you have such an enthusiasm when you talk about Florence that I now am considering a third visit. In general you have such an enthusiasm for Italiy! I have now spent more than 57,52 minutes watching your video, because I have been pausing it, and rewinded, to get all the details. I have used more than two pages in my notebook to write information about cafès etc to visit. I have previously been to Rome only once, for three days, and I am now planning my second visit there. I guess I have to go to Florence too!

👍

What do you do if you can’t eat high fat food or drink coffee. What options are there low fat food and hot drinks

I can’t eat high fat food or drink coffee. What are my options for food and hot drinks

Hotel L'Orologio Florence had a nice breakfast when we stayed there plenty to satisfy American type breakfast as well

hi i want or have to say that you are the best in every way to explain everything about italy and when i say everything i mean everything because i know a little about everything what you explain helps people to understand and know you are the best greetings from a Albanian

We enjoy the Antico Vanio at Milano Centrale train station.

Great video! Enjoyed very much. You mention all the links to the places in the video. Can you please let me know where to find them? Thanks in advance!

Gregor your vids of Italy are great. I’m leaving for Rome and Florence in a couple of weeks .i get to spend 3 days in Rome but only 1 day in Florence. Any other recommendations to go and manga besides the ones on your vids. By the way how long did you wait on line before you got your sandwich. Ciao

Next time someone want to get a hearthattack just watch your video. It is so hyper...
I been in Italy nut I did not know ALL the coock were black afro- americans ? ! like in your video.
Would be nice to see Europeans and Italians as well showed not just US citizens. as MOST NOT ON THE BIKE where they ride a bike like a stupid 2years old ride a bike like an olypic winner compared with them.
It is NOTHING WRONG not to be use to with to ride a bike but PRETEND TO BE EUROPEAN when a toddler is ride a bike here better is just so ASSAULTING TO US here ...

What about gluten free? I know Italy accommodates for gluten free more than many places.? Can you check that out for us?

Bongiorno, Gregor! Stumbled upon your channel now following! I liked Cafe Amerini for breakfast in Florence - it was just across from where I lived on Via della Vigna Nuova. Have you bean there?

I am from Florence and I've never been to th Antico Vinaio...🤣

Wait wut ?? I’m confused, in Italy, you’re allowed to have gelato after dinner, but not allowed to have a cappuccino 🤷🏻‍♀️

Un favolo per favore

You said in a previous video that in Italy you shouldn’t eat food while walking?

I don’t see the names of these restaurants. Where should I be looking?

Thanks!

I noticed that you were eating your schiactta while walking.

Isn't it considered in bad taste to walk while eating, except for eating "gelato?"

Clarification would be greatly appreciated. 😊

where are the the links for where you ate

what year is this

@GregorBrown…Braum’s? Where are you from? Hello from Broken Arrow 🙌

What about Vivoli?

Thank you for the advice, I have received a scholarship to study drawing and painting in Florence for a short time and this is really helpful, I have never been to Europe before so im really excited :) best wishes from Australia

From your opening 'definition'.... I'VE BEEN TO FLORENCE!! I absolutely LOVED the place. I'm 71 yo, from London, the Antico is in a street around the back of the Uffizi gallery. Queues everywhere, you need to have a really good idea what you want as service is manic, esp so if you don't speak Italian. Sandwich was AWESOME, as was the food everywhere. Cooking is made to seem so easy, but you know it's not: top quality ingredients, in season, minimal fuss, prepared with passion and yes LOVE. I ADORED this city.

I Fratelinni is far better in my opinion than the more "famous" Antico Vinaio. Run, don't walk to Fratelinni!

Stop giving this man Sugar and Caffeine 🤣 🤣 🤣

I’d like to collaborate with you for a Halal food tour in either Rome or Florence or the south of Italy. It’s an emerging market as more and more Muslims travel to Italy!

I remember when I went, there was an American walking by looking at the long line “it’s just a sandwich!”

Pretty dang good sandwich. But ya crazy long line
