Florence - May 2014: Caffe

Caffe in Florence

What better place to savour a coffee then the beautiful city of Florence.

Wonderful cakes and pastries in Florence.

There was excellent coffee, even at a small caffe. Here in the gardens of the museum in Fiesoli, outside Florence.

One of my favourites, a small caffe in the market in Florence. The barista/owner was very theatrical, serving all the customers and doing all the work at incredible speed. A great place to get an espresson on the run.. in the busy market.

A more leisurely espresso to conclude a meal. This one was at the Ristorante Pizzeria Santa Felicita.

A wide variety of coffee cups.

Espresson and latte.

 More latte, more espresso....

An espresso (and grappa) at the end of an evening.

Austrian coffee!

Grappa (and espresso)...

Florence - May 2014: Trattoria Bondi

Trattoria Bondi

A simple lunch in the Florentine sun.

Pizza at its most simple and delicious.

"There is a difference" - the English menu version.

A bright and colourful trattoria amid the street bustle of Florence.

Pizza and a glass of wine....

We loved the effect of the bright simple colours, lively in its street setting.

And of course classic espresso to finish.
