"Empireo" in Florence is a rooftop bar for lounging with an amazing cocktail, live jazz music and a 360 view over the city (and sunsets). Need I say more?

La Cova – Spanish tapas

"La Cova" Florence makes me feel like I'm in Barcelona with the one liter sangria pitchers and the delicious patatas bravas! Great for a girl's night out.

Il Cuore – Japanese experience

"Il Cuore" in Florence is a newer Japanese restaurant in town. They don't bother with fusion here - everything's truly authentic, and I just love it!

Osteria Il Magazzino – Tripperia

"Osteria Il Magazzino" is the only sit-down 'tripperie' in Florence, but I also tried the fried Fiorentina steak here - I could have it for my last meal.

Villa Bardini – Art, fresh air and a view

"Villa Bardini" Florence, built in 1641, is now a museum, but it's best known for its beautiful garden. Extra points if you catch the wisterias in bloom.

La Leggenda dei Frati – One star Michelin

"La Leggenda dei Frati": one of Florence's Michelin star restaurants - I can vouch for it! Protip: Come early and the chef will show you around the villa!

About me

About me
I am an international cocktail that loves good cocktails :) I majored in work psychology to then become a community manager... life sometimes brings you where you should be. There, I found out my love for this city, food and helping the community live at its best, specializing meanwhile in marketing and branding. I have now opened up my own branding company and still love to talk about my city! I also have a jazz group "Jazz and Eggs" and sing my heart out whenever I can!

Why Florence
I love Florence for many reasons, let us count them:
1- Everything is almost within walking distance, max 20 minutes to go through the city center.
2- Every time you look at a view, it looks like a 3D postcard.
3- There are a lot, even too many, great restaurants and enoteche to go have a great meal or a glass of wine. It makes it hard to diet, but it is worth it!
4- In every road there is history. It is an open-air museum and every store has something to say.
5- It has great events and venues, like rooftop bars and gardens that are still a little hidden!
