When you look up about street food in Florence, one of the things that you have to try is lampredotto. Hence, we ordered just that — panino al lampredotto. You also had a choice of adding a spicy sauce to it, but my boyfriend can’t really take spicy so we kept it as is. Being Chinese, tripe is a common dish that can be ordered at dim sum so I was curious as to how different/similar it may taste here. The panini was very tasty and a bit greasy at the bottom of the wrap, but the taste of the tripe was very good. It was very flavorful, delicious and not dry at all. If tripe is a little off-putting, they do serve other paninis besides that.

This was on my friends, 5 things you cannot miss list. «Really?» I coulda missed it and really wish we hadn’t stopped. However, the girl running the place was exceptionally nice. The food he was going to eat, even she admitted she wouldn’t eat it. we wound up having some ham sandwiches and did not try the specialty.

L’Antico Trippaio was my last meal in Florence and it definitely did not dissappoint. It remains one of my favorite memories of this city. I don’t remember exactly what I ordered,(the term«lampredotto» comes to mind) but my family tried three different sandwiches, mostly tripe.(My family is Chinese, so tripe is considered amazeballs while many other Americans may shun it.) All the sandwiches were hot, salty, messy, and delicious — and cheap! If I had discovered this place sooner, it would have been likely that I would have eaten here every day. The staff were super friendly and amused at our enthusiasm. Wish these guys plenty of business in the future!
