Hi my dear Sallybeth! :) To be honest we were expecting so much more from Florence. There are plenty of tourists and I thought they would take a chance and do it a bit differently. I hope it will grow faster in coming years :)

You are right! I think they don't want people to sit there for too long and this is why they put there uncomfortable furniture. We were looking for a typical Italian trattoria but of course they don't have any that is vegan and we even struggled to find simple spaghetti aglio olio or al arrabiata. It seems like they include either fish, meat or cream everywhere. The most frustrating part was that most of the restaurants don't even serve dried pasta. It's mainly fresh and made with eggs.

Vegan places are too small to accommodate many people and most of them were self service which for me means kind of a fast food. But at least we got some food.

Just wait for the review from Berlin. It will be soooo different! :)

Thank you for stopping by my dear! :)
