Arà: è Sicilia

The 35 Best Restaurants in Florence, Italy | Eater

"Savvy Sicilian chef Carmelo Pannocchietti is a fixture in Florence. His Sicilian street food outposts can satisfy a cannoli craving, but Arà also makes notably generous ragu-filled arancini, slabs of Sicilian pizza, granitas, and arguably the best Bronte pistachio gelato in town. Pannocchietti has expanded his venture into a bit of an empire, with pop-up stands along the river in the summer, an outpost on the top floor of the Mercato Centrale food hall, and a sit-down fast-casual deli (similar to a tavola calda). Know before you go: Don’t sleep on the natural wine list, which has some mind-boggling options sourced from the restaurant’s eponymous island." - Coral Sisk
