Osteria de'Pazzi, Florence

The name Osteria de’Pazzi probably refers to the ancient Florentine Pazzi family once living in the area, but it might also hint at the crazy atmosphere of the place! (“pazzo” = “crazy” in Italian). Just round the corner from Santa Croce square, this old fashioned trattoria offers both a lunch menu at reduced price and a wider one including all highlights of tuscan traditional cuisine. It is worth mentioning the large variety of meats, some of them cooked with the delicate “lardo di Colonnata” and fine herbs. This special lard is prepared with sea salt, garlic, herbs and spices and left for months in marble basins in the village of Colonnata near the Apuan Alps. - Maria Frullini
