03/10/2025: "Mom's Tiramisu - good to die for" - the best I've had in Florence!
03/10/2025: Sitting at the outdoor tables, in a setting that combines Florentine liveliness with the warmth of an authentic welcome, we had the privilege of tasting one of the most iconic dishes of Tuscan tradition: ampredotto.
The dish presents itself in all its essence: a rich, velvety broth, perfumed by a slow cooking process that releases the depth of the tomato and the tenderness of the meat. Each bite encapsulates the history of Florence, with a surprisingly delicate texture and a full, intense flavor that harmonizes perfectly with the simple bread served as a side dish. This is a cuisine that seeks no frills, but expresses truth and roots.
The service deserves special praise: fast, precise, and at the same time attentive to detail. The staff's helpfulness is perceived not as a duty, but as a natural extension of their hospitality. There is politeness, courtesy, and above all, friendliness, that human element that makes lunch not just a meal, but a shared experience.
The atmosphere, despite the simplicity of a typical osteria, resonates with authenticity. You can feel the Florence, you can feel the Tuscany. Here, time seems to slow down, giving way to flavors that speak of tradition and people who welcome you with a sincere smile.
A place worth keeping and recommending, because the ampredotto at Alimentari del Chianti is not just a dish, but a living fragment of Florentine culture, served with the grace of those who love their work and convey it in every gesture.
