Jeffyd at the famed Mario in Florence
Carol and I couldn't stay away from this place while we were in Florence this summer. It's a very simple place - a handwritten menu every day - featuring housemade pastas, bistecca fiorentina, wines by the glass, etc. They are only open for lunch, and are stuffed to the gills with workers from the nearby Mercato (a must see when in Florence!), backpackers (it's featured in Let's Go Europe) and foodies (rated a coveted Snail from the Slow Food folks).
We ate there three times!
