"Gucci Osteria da Massimo Bottura has been the talk of the town since it opened in Florence’s historic Palazzo della Mercanzia earlier this year. Connected to Gucci Garden, a hybrid fashion museum and shopping space, the small restaurant is open for lunch and dinner, serving a menu influenced by traditional Italian cuisine and Bottura’s own travels. Fans of Bottura and fashionable foodies will recognize the same spirit that can be found in the chef’s three-Michelin-star Osteria Francescana, in Modena, Italy (also named the best restaurant in the world in 2016 by the World's 50 Best Restaurant Awards). With menu options like steamed buns with pork belly, hamburgers served in neon pink Gucci boxes, and tortellini, there’s something for everyone." - Kristen Bateman
