Florence, Italy
Where to eat near the Ponte Vecchio
10 places within 15 minutes on foot of the Ponte Vecchio. Start with La Casalinga dal 1963, 6 min walk: ribollita.
The trap to skip
The restaurants right on the piazzas, with picture menus, flags on the menu and someone waving you in. Look for a short, handwritten menu a street or two off the square.
