Description: The quieter Oltrarno section of Florence hosts a number of trattorias on its side streets, filled with hanging flowers and plants, that offer Florence’s more local tastes. At Trattoria Bordino, start with the thinly sliced salmon draped on a bed of lettuce with buttered crostoni. A great primo is the risotto ai funghi porcini (rice seeped in a tomato sauce with porcini mushrooms) or the taglierini ai asparagi (pasta with asparagus). Bright yellow umbrellas and a lively wait staff keep this trattoria inviting and fun. The rustic Tuscan bread is not to be missed.
