FLORENCE
PARIONE
Upon seeking recommendations for Florence's best restaurants known for authentic pasta, we were directed to Parione. The stroll along the charming cobblestone streets, accompanied by the melodic strains of music emanating from within, set the scene for a memorable meal. Our introduction to this culinary haven was graced by an extraordinary waiter, who shared insights into the menu and stories behind the most popular dishes. Given that every pasta creation here was meticulously handcrafted, my choice of potato gnocchi with parmesan zabaione and black truffle proved to be an exquisite selection. This meal was phenomenal, with the velvety sauce flawlessly combined with the earthy nuances of the black truffle. If you find yourself in Florence, Parione is an absolute must-visit; while reservations for lunch aren't mandatory, I wholeheartedly recommend securing a table for dinner to ensure getting to try out this culinary gem.
