🇮🇹 If It’s Your First Time in Florence…

Florence is so delicious and fun to explore! 😬 Here are some no-fail spots to eat, drink, and shop. ☕️ Coffee & Gelato 🍦 Affogato (6€) 📍 Vivoli Gelateria Via Isola delle Stinche, 7r My dreamy Affogato—hot espresso poured over gelato. A must-try! ☕️ Tiramisu Coffee (6.5€) 📍 Ditta Artigianale *Via dei Neri, 30/32 R* A liquid tiramisu! Pro tip: Get it in a takeaway cup for the best photo. 🍫 Venchi Their "caviar" chocolates (~1€ each) are way cheaper than in China! Regret not buying more… Their dark chocolate gelato is rich and amazing. 🥪 Panini & Pasta 🥪 All'Antico Vinaio Tried the INFERNO (pork + cream sauce, chili, eggplant)—meh, the pork was bland. But the DANTE (ham, cheese, truffle sauce) was so good if you like Italian cured meats! 🍝 Acquaal2 Firenze (~20€ pp) Stumbled upon this place—huge line before opening! Their tiramisu was not too sweet and perfect. Pasta and prosciutto were great too. 🌶 Ristorante Bashifu (Chinese Szechuan, ~20€ pp) 📍 *Via dei Rondinelli, 24/R* A lifesaver for spice cravings! Authentic and flavorful. 🛍 Shopping 🖼 Handicraft shops near the Duomo Adorable Pinocchio clocks and fridge magnets with "Book Page" designs. Super unique! 💼 The Bridge (Wang Fei’s fave brand) If you want real Italian leather (not "Yiwu-made" knockoffs), this is the place. 🎨 Uffizi Gallery Must-Sees Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus & Primavera Da Vinci’s The Annunciation Michelangelo’s The Holy Family 🚫 Skip the Tribuna line! Everyone queues for the Medici Venus—just come back later when it’s empty. 🎟 Book tickets online to skip lines. No Chinese audio guide? Watch Bilibili docs (Florence & Uffizi) beforehand! #Italy #Florence #FoodieDiary #FlorenceEats #FujiCamera 🇮🇹✨
