Starting from Piazza della Repubblica you’ll be taken to savor some traditional and typical dishes as any Florentine would do! You’ll learn why we love our food! And soon you’ll be talking with your hands as well. Piazza della Repubblica used to be the Forum of the old Roman city when Florence was founded in 59bC by Julius Cesar
