Florence is visited by people around the world for so many reasons and food is a huge part of that reason.
Florentine food grows out of a tradition of peasant eating rather than rarefied high cooking. The majority of dishes are based on meat.
Here are where to get the best of florentine dishes according to Culturetrip;
