To eat a few fresh small nibbles in the middle of the bustle of “Mercato Centrale” is a marvellous experience in itself. Everyone has the feeling that the products fall fresh from the neighbours kitchens into the cooking pot, and that a piece of the Florentine everyday can be found here. No-one turns their head if you bite into a hearty “panino” for breakfast. From midday until 2 o’clock, there is octopus with peas, stewed “baccalà”, “panzarella” (the famous bread salad of the Etruscans) and “bollito misto”.
