Florentine Steak Dinner: Authentic Florentine Food Experience
Overview
Our authentic Florentine dining experience will take you back in time to the origins of some of Florence’s most renowned dishes. To the tables of the nobleman and peasants alike. To the courts and banquets hosted by the Medici.
Your hosts, Monica and Simone, will guide you on a culinary journey explaining each dish including both its historical origin but sometimes more importantly its cultural significance.
Your four course meal will be accompanied by a selection of traditional, locally produced wines and exceptional extra virgin olive oil.
Our Florentine Food Experience is a deep dive into local history and culture through our traditions at the table.
