This converted farmhouse is the countryside restaurant of choice for Florentines wishing to escape the city heat on a summer Sunday afternoon. You can enjoy warm-weather lunches on the tree-shaded stone terrace with a bucolic view. In cooler weather, you can dine inside several large rustic rooms with haphazard paintings scattered on the walls. The antipasto caldo of varied crostini and fried polenta is a good way to kick off a meal, followed by a misto della casa that gives you a sampling of primi. This may include penne strascicate or riso allo spezzacamino. The best secondo is the pollastro al mattone or the lombatina di vitello alla griglia.
