Lifestyle + Travel

Finally going on our dream trip to Italy was the best way to ring in 35! Thank you all for the birthday love! If you have Florence & Rome on your future trip list or have a trip already booked, these are some of our favorite restaurants.

Rome:

  • Ristorante Il Falchetto
  • Roscioli – OMG amazing – book your Rez asap!
  • IL FALCHETTO (Thank you for the rec @heatherkmcmahan ??)
  • Baccano -Chris’s favorite carbonara
  • Antica Pesa Rome – gorgeous terrace, awesome wine list + pasta (came highly recommended by Ali Puliti & Shaun Hoffman ??)
  • Giolitti Official – the gelato will make you cry happy tears
  • Camillo dal 1890 – great location for lunch + spritz

Tuscany:

  • Club Culinaro Tuscano 
  • Ristorante Cibreo Firenze dal 1979
  • Ristorante Buca Lapi
  • Antica Macelleria CECCHINI
  • Officina della Bistecca

This is just a short list, but all of these were incredible!

Enjoy!

    Hi. Love to follow all of your posts. They make me smile. Going to Italy for a month long trip next year. We are renting a villa in Tuscany with some friends. Could you send me a list of the hotels that you stayed in in case we decide to make a change in our accommodations? Also , all of the wonderful restaurants. Thanks so much.
