The Professor just returned from a small group tour to Italy. We saw a lot of great sites like the David at the Accademia and the classic Renaissance Italian art at the Uffizi Palace. We enjoyed the charm and history of this great Tuscan city. But when it came time to eat, we took advantage of the bounty of wonderful Italian food, Tuscan style. The best restaurants in Florence feature fresh vegetables, aromatic herbs, home-made pasta, organic beef. Don't forget about the pizza, cheeses, fruits and of course the best gelato in the world.
