Florence is literally the birthplace of a lot of the Western dishes that are available today. In no way does Florence claim to be home to some of the greatest cuisines, but they will not deny that they have cuisine that is not challenged by any other region in the world. They leave it up to the tourist to determine if they really have the best cuisine.

As with most cities that are similar in essence to Florence, a lot of the more affordable eateries can be found around the main railway station. The more expensive eateries can be found in the center of the city. In Oltrarno, there are some great moderately to high priced restaurants that you’ll never forget. They have cuisine that is quite unique compared to some of the other places you may eat at.

The best way to experience Florentine cuisine is to order dishes that are traditional to the region. If not, you may experience dishes that are similar to what you have already tried in your home country. Again, Florence is home to a lot of the Western dishes that countries such as the United States and Canada enjoy. The reason why you want to stick with what is traditional to the region is because many of these restaurants have stuck to the peasant traditions. This involves combining simple cooking methods with basic ingredients. This may not sound like much, but the truth is that the results are rather astounding. It is hard to believe that such basic cooking can yield such great results, but that is what makes Cuisine in Florence so unique. They’re not trying to dress things up. They’re just sticking with what they know. In other words, they have adhered to what many have lost throughout the years and that is the taste of tradition.
