The go-to restaurants. I ristoranti da non perdere Firenze

At Taste the presentation of the book revealing the must-try taste places in the city according to Davide Paolini

Looking to the past to build the future. This is the magic of Florence, a city that knows how to be contemporary while remaining true to its essence, in art as in cuisine.
Florentine dining has never allowed itself to be overwhelmed by gastronomic fads-from nouvelle cuisine to molecular cuisine-but has been able to respond to standardization with its unmistakable style: evolving without losing its soul. This is told to perfection by Davide Paolini, known as the 'gastronaut,' in his new book The go-to restaurants. I ristoranti da non perdere Firenze, produced together with Gruppo Editoriale.

A collectible book, in Italian and English, with 224 pages embellished with a fine cloth cover. 49 addresses selected by Paolini, each with a unique soul, told through more than 200 unpublished images by Andrea Dughetti. And that's not all: for each place, the author suggests an iconic dish and the perfect pairing with wines (and more), without forgetting the portraits of chefs and patrons who make these places so special. A must-have volume for those who love good food and want to discover the best restaurants in the city, between tradition and innovation.
