Recently opened Vegetarian Osteria! A mix of traditional Tuscan dishes revisited for a brilliantly designed old-time tavern, in the stunning square of the Oltrarno.
An unconventional menu that does not have appetizers, first and second courses, but is a journey through time in taste. I love it!

“Farm to table” is the motto of Carduccio, a bar/bistro that sources its dishes from small local producers, from whom it buys fruit and vegetables grown using organic or biodynamic methods. Specialties of the restaurant, in fact, are the smoothies and extracts, together with the fruit salads and the many vegan or gluten-free sweet proposals. Espressos are also good!
