While living in Orvieto, Italy, I had many months to explore all of the different (& very tasty) restaurants, cafes, and bars in town. For a town that is only a mile long, there is a lot packed in -- and mostly for a very affordable price. Not all of these are open year-round; if traveling between Christmas and the end of February, expect some closures or shortened hours. Italians usually have a quick & very light breakfast -- some espresso and maybe a pastry. Don't expect a full American breakfast anywhere you travel in Italy! Lunch is usually one course, typically very quick like pizza or small plate pasta. Aperitivo is Italy's happy hour, but much cooler. Usually, with the purchase of a drink the snacks come free (and flowing!). Traditional Italian dinner is at least 3 courses, though at some restaurants you are not expected to order that many. Depending on how nice the restaurant is though, you may be expected to order 2. Because Orvieto is smaller (& because you don't tip in Italy) a two-course dinner is typical and budget-friendly. And remember -- it is inappropriate to leave food leftover on your plate. Another important note about Italian cafe/restaurant culture is that a lot of the spots on this list are interchangeable. In Italy, it is typical/expected that a cafe is open for coffee & pastries at breakfast time, transition to a lunch after noon with quick plates, aperitivo in the afternoon, and a bar after dinner. For restaurants, they typically open around noon for lunch (if they even open for lunch), then resume around dinnertime. Rule of thumb is that anywhere that starts serving dinner before 7/7:30 isn't authentic & is a tourist trap.

In 2017, I studied abroad for a semester in Florence, Italy, and just about died and went to pasta heaven! From January through May, I ate like a queen. I honestly have no idea how I afforded to eat out as much as I did. But it was worth every cent! As soon as I was confirmed into the Lorenzo de'Medici program, various friends of friends sent their recommendations and guides for Florence to me. I inherited a wealth of inside knowledge about Florence like the secret bakeries, wine windows, and where to find the cute bartenders. I referred to these guides religiously in the first few weeks of getting my footing before establishing my own favorites around the city and starting my own Florence food guide. There's no doubt in my mind that there are newer additions to the Florence restaurant scene since I was there in 2017. This is just a compilation of my favorite places in Florence from someone who lived there for 5 months! This food guide is like my original Google Doc bullet point list had a baby with my food Instagram, @my600lblife. I've removed any eateries that are no longer in business but kept all my original commentary from 20-year-old Maeve who apparently was only concerned a good deal. Some of them make me giggle and cringe a little but they're authentically me and it's just like my favorite saying, "If you're not cringing, you're not growing." I've included a lengthy list of tips for dining in Italy, a breakdown of the Italian courses and their English translation, and of course, my favorite (and not so favorite) restaurants in Florence including pasta, pizza, panino, caffe, aperitivo, gelato & more! Please tag me on any pictures on Instagram (@maevecutts) so I can live vicariously through your travels to Florence! As always, I'm happy to help you plan a custom itinerary for your trip to Florence! Just reach out to me directly (:

In English and Italian When I decided to become a sommelier back in 2009, I felt that the best way to learn about wine and winemaking was to visit as many vineyards as I could. The first area that I focused on was a territory in Campania known as Irpinia. It is located in the northeast portion of the Avellino province. I remember spending my Saturdays visiting wineries, wine tasting, and walking the vineyards. I learned so much! Not just about wine, but the culture that surrounds it. I fell in love and I think if you get a chance to visit some of the wineries listed here, you will fall in love as well. In this corner of Campania there is practically everything when it comes to territory; hills, mountains, lakes, rivers, clayey soil, volcanic soil. I could go on. Red grape varieties include aglianico and piedirosso. White grape varieties include greco, fiano, coda di volpe, and greco musc’. Irpinia is home to 3 DOP wines – Taurasi (made with aglianico), Fiano di Avellino and Greco di Tufo. *In Italy, when you see a wine label the says DOP (Denominazione di Origine Protetta – Protected Designation of Origin)- it is a guarantee that the wine was produced in a certain area under certain strict conditions. (It is NOT an indication of the quality of the wine) That being said, wineries have their vineyards spread throughout the area-often far from the winery itself. My guide is perfect for wine enthusiasts – those who are looking for an adventure in a glass. My guide includes - 🛣️maps - 💻links to the wineries - ⌚days/hours of operations -🤙 my recommendations and suggestions for itineraries - 🎤audio links This is a living breathing guide; meaning that it will be updated often. Need suggestions for a 1, 2, or 3 day itinerary. Feel free to contact me. Quando ho deciso di diventare sommelier nel 2009, ho sentito che il modo migliore per conoscere il vino e la vinificazione era visitare quanti più vigneti possibile. La prima area su cui mi sono concentrata è stato un territorio della Campania noto come Irpinia. Si trova nella parte nord-est della provincia di Avellino. Ricordo di aver trascorso i miei sabati visitando cantine, degustando vini e camminando tra i vigneti. Ho imparato così tanto! Non solo di vino, ma della cultura che lo circonda. Mi sono innamorataa e penso che se hai la possibilità di visitare alcune delle cantine elencate qui, ti innamorerai anche tu. In questo angolo di Campania c'è praticamente di tutto quando si parla di territorio; colline, montagne, laghi, fiumi, terreno argilloso, terreno vulcanico. Potrei continuare. I vitigni a bacca rossa includono aglianico e piedirosso. I vitigni a bacca bianca includono greco, fiano, coda di volpe e greco musc'. L'Irpinia ospita 3 vini DOP: Taurasi (prodotto con aglianico), Fiano di Avellino e Greco di Tufo. * In Italia, quando vedi un'etichetta di vino con la scritta DOP (Denominazione di Origine Protetta) - è una garanzia che il vino è stato prodotto in una certa zona a determinate condizioni rigorose. (NON è un'indicazione della qualità del vino) Detto questo, le cantine hanno i loro vigneti sparsi in tutta l'area, spesso lontano dalla cantina stessa. La mia guida è perfetta per gli appassionati di vino - coloro che sono alla ricerca di un'avventura in un bicchiere. La mia guida include - 🛣️mappe - 💻link alle cantine - ⌚giorni/ore di funzionamento - 🤙 i miei consigli e suggerimenti per itinerari - 🎤audio guide Questa è una guida vivente alla respirazione; il che significa che verrà aggiornato spesso. Hai bisogno di suggerimenti per un itinerario di 1, 2 o 3 giorni. Non esitate a contattarmi.
