K2 — Good old fashioned Tuscan food
Sep 2^nd, 2008 | By: Audrey Smith
This basic restaurant is probably my favourite in town. One of the few places where you can still have the feeling of a real italian trattoria as the town was full of 20 years ago. Now the majority of them have become fake places with unbelievable prices and K2″ resists as one of the few old schools testimonials.
K2 is a Tuscan restaurant and the ratio of price to quality is probably unbeatable in town. With 25 – 30 euros maximum you can have a real taste of Tuscan food, in my opinion the best italian food.
Don’t miss pappardelle al cinghiale (a big kind of tagliatelle with wild boar sauce), fagioli all’uccelletto (a very tipical tuscan dish with beans) and above all, the real Fiorentina (a massive piece of t-​bone cooked in the pizza oven). Some advice: as the Fiorentina is usually around 800 grams, if you choose it, don’t have anything else or you will explode!
The perfect place for changing your mind if you think that Italian food is just pasta. It’s absolutely necessary to book, above all during the weekend.
