The tiny family-run Ganino has long been a major destination for hungry tourists because it's across from the American Express office as well as halfway between the Duomo and the Uffizi. This has caused the place to jack its prices to eyebrow-raising levels but not sacrifice its friendly service and good food, from the big ol' chunk of mortadella that accompanies your bread basket through the tasty
ribollita or
gnocchi al pomodoro (ricotta-and-spinach gnocchi in tomato sauce) to the
filetto all'aceto basalmico (veal filet cooked in balsamic vinegar) or
coniglio in umido (rabbit with boiled potatoes on the side) that rounds out your meal.
