We have a family trip planned to Florence in November, and I'm interested in any recommendations you have. Or at least more food pics

Tripes has to be boiled for at least 2 hours before final preparations - we cook it home but our kids won't touch it! But here all the food tastes better - my wife cooked some chicken liver yesterday and they were absolotely phenomenal.
The one I posted above is very well known and highly rated despit the fact he operates on a street corner in the historic center. You gotta get to him early as he will run out of Trippa Fiorentina. But then again in November you won't see the crowds we currently experiencing - streets are packed with people, mostly Italians, until the early hours of the morning.
I will keep you updated on our culinary progress ...
