We have always enjoyed RS recommendations for dining but I think it's good to find out what travelers are enjoying currently.
Florence and Rome are on the itinerary. We are food lovers; my husband is a chef and I'm a cookbook author and former dining critic, but what we really appreciate is delicious, handmade food -- it doesn't need to be fancy at all. In fact, we love a small locals' favorite with comfort food more than something famous, fussy, and overpriced.
Any suggestions on great finds any of you have made lately in Florence and Rome? Thanks in advance.
