Ristorante I' Toscano in Florence.

Classic Tuscan cuisine in a subdued atmopshere

The minimalist decor lit by soft sconces and the light touch on Tuscan dishes attracts an international crowd to this subdued restaurant.

The crostini di petto d'oca (toast rounds with a duck breast pate) make a delicious antipasto, and you can follow it up equally well with risotto ai carciofi (rice with asparagus) or tortellini panna e prosciutto (plump meat-stuffed pasta and chunks of ham in a cream sauce with chopped basil).

The filetto di vitellone all'aceto basalmico (young beef steak cooked in basalmic vinegar) is, it must be said, a cut above the peoposo all'Impruneta, a soupy peppersteak stew—the health-concious may be surprised by the ribbons of fat, but it's a good traditional dish.

Service here can sometimes be slow and off, but they remain friendly.
