Gucci Osteria Da Massimo Bottura - Review - Centro Storico - Florence - The Infatuation
"Yes, this restaurant is owned by Gucci and Italy’s most famous chef, Massimo Bottura. And it’s a top tasting menu spot where you'll encounter Chinoiserie porcelain and creative dishes like spaghetti inspired by Sicily’s cannoli with a dreamy pistachio pesto. The food is really all over the place, though, thanks to their current chefs from Mexico City and Tokyo, and they often host dinners with restaurants from around the world. In addition to twists on Italian classics and rotating seasonally-themed menus, expect things like Mexican ceviche tostadas and Japanese pork belly buns filled with Cinta Senese pigs from Siena that have similar levels of fame to the Pope. Even though this is a fine dining spot, it’s not stuffy, but rather cheerful and bright with modern chic plush seating, eye-catching Art Nouveau accents, and green tones everywhere. This is Gucci, after all." - Coral Sisk
