Cantinetta del Nonno

Went on a wine tour with my wife in Tuscany on our honeymoon in Florence and the tour guide brought us to this restaurant. Wow! Best meal we have had thus far on our stay in Italy! The food was fresh, the owner, who served us, was as welcoming as could be. We had artichoke flan (currently in season) and it was amazing! We had a selection of cured meats with cheese, bruschetta, and fresh breads for an appetizer with house red wine. Every bite was better than the previous and we nearly licked the plates clean!
For primi plati (entrée) I had the gnocchi with potato and pear and cheese in a sauce — I didn’t know what it was really but it was made fresh that morning so I ordered it and was not disappointed. Delicious!
My wife had the Tagliatelle con porcini — also we were told was made fresh that morning. She can’t stop talking about it — best pasta she has ever had.
They even had free fresh water and a huge and clean bathroom.
We closed the meal with an espresso which was the perfect end to a delightful meal.
We strongly recommend this restaurant — and we are discerning eaters.

Il vous faudra d’abord traverser l’épicerie, longer le bar, passer devant les congélateurs et l’entrée de la cuisine avant d’accéder à la salle à manger de la trattoria ! La déco est d’un goût incertain (tableaux disparates aux couleurs criardes) Et l’on s’assoit autour de la table. Ah ! Les nappes et les serviettes sont en tissu. Nous voilà mis en confiance! La suite se révèle fort agréable: raviolis à la sauge exquis, tripes à la Florentines délicieuses, assiette de fromages sublimissime (servie avec un chutney de céleri, oui, ça se fait !, divin) et un tiramisu un peu décevant (le mien est meilleur, mais peut-​être est-​ce parce que nous n’avions plus faim) 71,50 euros à 4 ! Rien à ajouter si ce n’est que si vous passez par là et que le Cinque di vino est bondé vous né serez pas déçus .Nous n’avons bu que de l’eau (reprise du volant oblige) et la bonne surprise, c’est que servie en carafe, gazeuse ou plate, elle est comprise ainsi que le pain (excellent) dans les 2 euros par personne de coperto
