Over twentyfive years ago, a Hapsburg Prince and his 3 children, joined together to share their family traditions and ancient recipes with the people of Florence. And so the “legend” of La Giostra began… News of a noble family managing with dishes and napkins made headlines, but it did not come as a surprise to everyone. Friends who were accustomed to gathering around the table of the Prince, at his family castle in the Chianti countryside knew very well the magic of his food and had often suggested he open a restaurant. https://www.ristorantelagiostra.com/

Restaurant in the heart of San Frediano, we offer land and sea dishes created with skilful mastery by both chefs who always use first choice raw materials. The tip of the diamond is the Pizzeria which produces naturally leavened pizzas, seasoned with fresh and genuine products typical of Neapolitan cuisine, from burrata to tomatoes from the Motticella company until late at night. Il Neromo is therefore an excellent meeting place where to dine always accompanied by excellent wines, beers and music and by the friendliness and kindness of both the staff and the owners themselves.

Braceria all'11 is a restaurant located a stone's throw from Piazza Santo Spirito and Piazza Pitti. A new and well-furnished restaurant with an outdoor garden where you can taste the typical Tuscan and Mediterranean cuisine based especially on fresh truffles and various types of cuts of steak.

Da Ginone is a historic trattoria in the center of Florence, in the San Frediano district, active since 1929. But it was immediately after the Second World War that, thanks to the Beconcini brothers, it took on the appearance that is still visible today. From 1949 to today, in fact, the place will remain almost the same. Evolving over time, modernizing itself, keeping up with innovations but without ever distorting its nature and forgetting the origins of its historical roots. In May 2022, then, the new management of Marco Dovellini. Born in 1987, true Florentine, who first trained at the International School of Italian Cuisine (Alma), then started some experiences in northern Italy and finally returned to his hometown to put the best Tuscan and Florentine tradition at the center of his dishes. The Trattoria Da Ginone 1949 has handed down and offers ancient traditional recipes that are the result of the experience and continuous research that has taken place within the walls of this restaurant since its inception. With the aim of reviving the emotions and sensations of the past, however making use of modern cooking methods that take into account the respect for raw materials and environmental sustainability.

After the opening of the historic Osteria delle Tre Panche in Via Pacinotti in Florence and the vibrant experience at the Chefs Club in New York  we decided to make our dream come true by opening our second restaurant in the historic center of Florence. We have in fact recently inaugurated “Osteria delle Tre Panche in Centro Storico” in the halls and panoramic terrace of the Hotel Hermitage which dominates the roofs and monuments of the historic center of our city, Florence. Elegant and informal, here you can breathe Florence and its history also thanks to the large windows that offer suggestive views over the roofs and the heart of the old city. In the summer, the terrace on the 6th floor offers a breathtaking view of the Ponte Vecchio from the main rooftop and of Palazzo Vecchio from the secondary one. Osteria delle Tre Panche offers a menu mainly inspired by the territory with traditional meat dishes as well as many dishes based on the best Tuscan truffle. The cuisine is based on excellent raw materials, preferably from selected local producers to give you a taste experience to remember.

Dimitri’s workshop, DV Bags, is a charming place which can be found hidden away deep in the Florentine neighbourhood of Oltrarno – it has been able to preserve its charm precisely because it has kept its distance from the normal tourist trails and guided tours, eschewing all promotion or advertising. While it remains a secretive and reserved place, all who come within its doors feel welcome in its warm, evocative atmosphere, where the dedicated work of skilled hands is still treasured and passed on to others. https://www.dimitrivilloresi.com/

This year there is a change of location: no longer the gardens of the Fortezza, but the Cascine that will host the 55-metre high Ferris wheel from 8 December to 10 June. Next to the wheel there are various cultural and entertainment initiatives with a Christmas theme until 15 January. These include a large 1340 square metre ice skating rink, the largest in Italy, where you can twirl around the big Christmas tree, and for the little ones there are cute penguins to help out. There is also the Christmas market, where you can meet Father Christmas in his little house or, wearing visors, take an amazing trip flying aboard the magic sleigh. Don't miss the food stands to eat and drink while enjoying the shows and the atmosphere of a Cascine park that is reborn.

NEW FIORENTINA TRAINING GROUND AND CLUB HEADQUARTERS The brand-new Fiorentina training ground and club headquarters will occupy a site spanning around 25 hectares, making it one of the largest sports complexes in Italy. For the first time in the club's history, Fiorentina will own its own training ground – with the complex set to provide a single hub for both the men's and women's first teams, as well as the youth academy. The move will allow the club to grow from a sporting perspective while pursuing its goal of becoming one of the most innovative in Europe in terms of organisation and facilities.
