Florentine Trattorias - Osterias - Wine Shops - Trippaios and Florentine Restaurants
There is no clear distinction between trattorias and osterias: both are family businesses serving the simple and genuine Tuscan dishes. Maybe the only difference lays in the fact that osterias do not offer as wide a menu as trattorias. Traditionally, the popular quarter of Oltrarno is one of the most rich in osterias and trattorias, as if to underline the inexpensiveness of this kind of restaurants.
Wine shops can be divided into enotecas and fiaschetterias. Enotecas offer a wide and refined selection of wines to be tasted with some appetizers. Florentine fiaschetterias are cheap wine shops where to eat sandwiches.
Florence is scattered with trippaios selling their sandwiches filled with tripe or lampredotto (a particular kind of tripe) and a spicy sauce.
