Tonight we said farewell to Florence with a dinner together. The idea was that we would go somewhere lovely, to see the city at night without a concern for the budget! We were planning to start with drinks in the Cantinetta Antinori, but it was full, so instead we went to the unspellable place in the corner of Piazza Della Republica for the delicious, but ridiculous-looking drinks that you can see in the picture.
After this brief interlude, we went back to Cantinetta for a glass of wine - not the best in the place by a long way - then off to restaurant La Giostra, run by Hapsburg princes, and hidden away on Borgo Pinti. The food was delicious, the wine lovely and the place divine. The 45 minutes we had to wait to get the table we had booked was more than made up for by the company, and the quality of the grub. And at 30 euros a head - no complaints! Other than the fact it made Friday a long, long day....
