Okay, I'll be the first to review in English. I just happen to walk by this stand during lunch rush yesterday and it looked very popular, so made a point of going the next day. I was there at 10:30am, so I beat the lunch rush. I had to do a Google search on "panino al lampredotto" and here's what Wikipedia says
"A sandwich with lampredotto--panino al lampredotto has been described as a "classic Florentine" sandwich and is a traditional regional street food in Florence. Lampredotto is typically chopped, slow-cooked in a vegetable broth, seasoned with herbs, and served on a bread roll. It is often topped with a spicy sauce or a green sauce (salsa verde). Lampredotto is a typical Florentine dish, made from the fourth and final stomach of a cow, the abomasum."
I'm not a fan of tripe, but since it's famous and only 3€, I'm willing to give it a try. Well, I'm still not a fan of tripe! I ate 1/2 and fed the rest to some very hungry pigeons. I do plan to go back for a pork sandwich "panino porchetta".
I had my first espresso shot here. It was 80 cents and a quick way to get your caffeine!
There are benches in the little park that you can sit and eat on.
Enjoy! read more
