Cradle of the Renaissance yet enduringly fashionable, with a cuisine to match its artistic wealth, Florence is a feast for the senses. In depth and entertaining, this guide will help you indulge in it... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I loooooooooved this book while I lived in Florence for four months. The descriptions were witty, sometimes totally out there, yet always on par. I truly believe that anyone that doesn't like this series is merely too old for it or not up for enough fun. It has spectacular recommendations for restuarants, bars, and just enough history for the sights to see. For more history and detail, I like the Eyewitness guides. My Italian experience would not have been the same with out this guide... a definite must buy.
great restaurants and good advice

I just came back from Florence and I used this guide. It had great restaurants listed and I visited serveral. It also gave me some great advice for going to Fiesole. I saw a private garden that was beautiful! If you are the type that likes to go to local hangouts, this is your guide.
