On one of the last nights spent in Firenze, the group ate at a restaurant that served Apiertivo style. After purchasing one drink, an all-you-can eat buffet was yours to devour.
Since a lot of the dishes were meat, the bartender sympathized with the students who kept kosher and provided ample vegetarian options.
The experience was unique and the food was delicious. I was planning on saving room for what had become my nightly gelato splurge but found that I was too full.
I noticed that unlike at many other restaurants and bars in Firenze, where most people were foreign (and more noticeably, American) at the Apiertivo, the other guests were Italian. I found myself wishing that I had discovered apiertivos sooner, but I guess it is a well kept secret of Italy!
