i live in Belgium but i drive to Italy once or twice a year for the incredible food and to road trip. i love Italy. my favorite country. nothing compares
Fine dining is the pleasure of life. I worked in a French fine dining in Bermuda. I enjoyed every minute of this video esp. the expressions of their faces. Ambience of the ristorante is superb. Walking in a display of dry aged beef. When the bistecca arrived, wow just the way I liked it. Charred outside & rare inside. Reasonable price. We just ate at Toca Madera, Aria Resorts in Las Vegas. Our 40oz. Wagyu tomahawk steak was $225 with a bottle of Amarone 1998. Excelentisimo!
We told them we were very SERIOUS wine lovers, they came up with a Tignanello 1989. One of the best experience we've had in our lives. This was on our 11th anniversay.
126 euros for 1.3Kg of very high quality meat and a good bottle of wine doesn't seem like such a crazy expense to mee, if we think of this "phantom trend" of wagyu meat from japan, which is good but certainly not as good as Chianina! for me you did very well and I'm glad you had fun! a hug to both ❤🥩
Agree totally with your comment. Expensive, yes. But worth it. I have seen crazy high prices in other countries and not worth it by comparison. Those can be sort of, ripping you off, price wise. This is not that.
Sorry reaper I have eaten both Chianina and A5 Miyazaki and it’s decidedly prospective, Japanese wagyu is way richer almost melting earthy in flavor an unbelievable eating experience while Chianina is robust in beef flavor and extremely tender especially the rarest parts, the level of animal husbandry that goes into breeding and bringing both breeds to the table is phenomenal neither is a gimmick and as someone who has had the privilege and pleasure of having both they’re equal
Great video! We are visiting Europe for the first time in a few weeks and I've just booked at this restaurant. Our family loves steak so we're going to enjoy that bad boy :)
I had it back in 1998 when I was in Italy for work. It wasn’t at that restaurant. But Florence has many great steak places. It was almost a joke, an American, an Australian, and a Brit walk in to a steak house. It was a steak I still remember it 25 years later. It’s a bargain at any price.
Haha that’s awesome Mark! 😂💯 Definitely an experience worth having, especially if you still remember it all these years later - we love hearing that! 🤗🇮🇹
This just made my day, smiling from beginning until the end and even after. I'm so happy to see you both enjoy such a nice meal. You definitely deserve it, and I totally understand living on a budget so yes very happy to see you treating yourself. Your both so funny ❤and such a sweet couple, wishing you both many blessings ❤
Love Bistecca alla Fiorentina! There's a trattoria across the street from the front door of our house in Italy (Pontremoli, MS) called Trattoria Peliccia that does wonderful classic cuisine from our area. Raffaello, the chef, is a master of the Fiorentina (and his roast potatoes are sublime, soft and creamy on the inside, wonderfully flavored with rosemarino and garlic). If you don't want something as big as the Fiorentina look for tagliata - similar but more for one person.
It’s a life changing meal! Nothing else can compare in my opinion! So glad you guys decided to experience this. You will never regret doing this. Tinker and I wish we could have another one of those steaks right now! Favorite meal in Italy! Good choice all around! I’ll send you guys a pizza soon 😂
@@TheGlobalExpatsragazzi, non soffermatevi sempre sulle citta piu conosciute .. Andate a Parma, Mantova, Trento ,..etc, Meritano una visita.. Sono piccole citta, ma seconde a nessuna..l italia e un piccolo scrigno di storia, cultura, cibo, e buon vivere... 🙏😊
I’ve just returned from lake Como and the restaurant in the hotel had steak fiorentina for 57 euros for two people which I went for on my own, it was delicious .
Ottima scelta per il ristorante! Mi sono divertito tantissimo. Non vedo l'ora di vedere i vostri video e ammiro le vostre scelte. Siete super simpatici! Bravi! ❤🤗😅🤩
This was exactly what I needed as I lay in bed sick as a dog! OMG you guys are awesome! Micha you are my girl, we could definitely hang and do some damage to some good wine! I love how you “squeezed” the last drop out of that bottle 😂😂😂😂! I haven’t been to Florence yet but this will for sure be n the to do list when I return to Italy. I always eat my steak rare to medium rare so this would be right up my ally and 126€ is not bad at all. Thanks for sharing and stay safe❤❤
126 euros is the tourist price. There is a Trattoria in Firenze that I know of that charged 3.5 euros per hg (approx. 60 euros for 1kg) for bistecca alla fiorentina. Apparently this place is popular with the locals and has been around since the 50s. A lot of other places in Firenze charge higher tourist prices for the steak
You only live once and if I went I would have to try it. Beautiful Steak and a night you will never forget. I have watched many people eat this same steak and always the same reaction. Has to be cooked with the right beef and the right charcoal and the right way. What a night.
I’ve also been to Florence and heard how good the Florentine steaks are, while there I tried one and yes the meat was amazing, it’s the best I’ve ever had all over the world … honest it was that good, I’ve never tasted steak as good as the one in Florence.
You guys are so cute! Your reactions were priceless! Us Safricans are used to great steaks, but that looks beyond superb! That’s why it’s so famous! Duh! Thanks for the joy! ❤
Raccontare una bistecca alla fiorentina non è difficile, è impossibile. E' un'esperienza da vivere in prima persona. Siete simpaticissimi da sobri, brilli per il vino ancora di più! Saluti da Roma.
Why yes, we've eaten the steak and loved it Basically, they knock the horns off and throw it on a plate. It's a special breed of beef called Chianina beef dry aged. Well, I'm a farm boy so..
YES! You ate the steak of the gods! I LOVE that steak at Cucina Marione in Florence, but where you went looks amazing! Hint, hint, hint: The creme de la creme flavored steak is on the BONE! NEVER LET THEM TAKE AWAY THE BONE UNTIL YOU HAVECLEANED IT WHITE!! ir's so true what they say, "BAD TO THE BONE!!!"
Had Chianina steak at the Trattoria dall'Oste two years ago. Top three steaks in my entire life (and I'm not in my 20s, lol)! The sizzling on a hot stone is definitely part of the expérience. Had quite the same experience (with the hot stone and everything) in a very local and modest restaurant somewhere in the hills above Lake Como. At a much lower price! 😀 But hey, that's Florence... ;-)
Enjoyed your video. Not sure why you guys and so many other people think that eating rare to medium rare meat is bloody? The juice is myoglobin which is not blood!
It's a catching trend with the fiorentina, but the meat itself sells for around 40€/kg for fresh Chianina, even more for an aged steak. So from that standpoint, in a restaurant, it's not that costly but definitely not cheap as no chianina steak is cheap to buy in the first place. Glad you enjoyed.
Solo nella mia bella Italia dove si mangia bene, ma avete pure la fortuna di vedere le meraviglie che il mondo ci invidia, lasciata dai più grandi artisti che il mondo abbia avuto.
Not really mate, in Florence we used to eat "costola" that Is the part without filet and Is very very nice (and cheaper). The filet Is more tender but less tasty. Next time u have to try
My husband and I were here in April, and the steak was awesome. We didn't have to order a full bottle of wine, we ordered a half bottle and my husband had beer.
Bravo guys…wow you guys basically finished almost everything. Steak looks good but I would definitely have to share with a few people. Glad you guys had a great dinner
Have you been to Il Latini? I'm curious how it rates compared to Trattoria dall'Oste. Watching your Firenze videos make me want to hop on a plane Right Now!! Firenze is my favorite large city. Garzie mille for sharing your carnivore experience.
OMG, I laughed during this entire episode! You guys’ expressions are the best! Don’t know how you finished that entire meal and a bottle of wine but I am sure after all of that you were feeling no pain. 😂 I am not one for rare steak either but your experience makes me want to try it just once! ❤
What if I’m traveling solo? How can I eat florentine steak?? I want to try but I will not be able to finisha 1.3kg steak on my own! Is there a smaller cut less than 1 kg?
That much quality food plus a bottle of wine and having the experience with the love of your life? The price does not seem hefty at all. Thank you for the recommendation ❤️👌🏼
Yes, but not this cut. You can have a ribeye (costata), a New York Strip (controfiletto), or a filet. The bistecca alla fiorentina (t-bone) can't be smaller than this.
We are in Florence until the 28th then going to Rome for 2 nights. I'm going to use Fork to make a reservation. Do I need to do something for the discount? Thanks
That's so exciting Jeffrey, we hope you are having an amazing time! 😍🇮🇹 So all we did was go to The Fork website, put in the restaurant / choose the location, because there are a few in the city (we went to the Borgo S. Lorenzo location near the Duomo). Then from the calendar you can see what days and times are available, and what discount is offered as well. Select what you want and confirm your booking, then they will send you an e-mail with the details. Just screenshot it / show them the confirmation e-mail at the restaurant before you pay at the end of the meal, and that's it! We hope you enjoy it!! 🤗
@@TheGlobalExpats Thanks. I will keep you posted. I was just showing my wife your video from that night. We know exactly where this is. We went by it today. Thanks.
You sould visit Greece ..The ultimate freshness and the ultimate taste its something you dont wanna miss.. From Crete to Macedonia is a blast!! Cheers!
Hi. Loved your video. We are going to Florence this summer and we might try this. Do you know if its posible to split the steak between 4 poeple 2 adults an to kids aged 13 and 15. Would that be ok or conciderd rood?😊
Hey Sine, yes, I'm sure that'll be perfectly fine and not considered rude at all! 🥰 When in doubt, just ask your waiter/waitress, the majority speak English in Florence as well 🇮🇹
Sine Bryld You have to understand that a restaurant has to make a certain of money out of each table, and number of customers I know as a small restaurant owner for 24 years, now retired; that is why many of them charge a cover charge, the business is very volatile and why the percentage of failure is so high.
Back in 2008 I was near Arezzo visiting my father in law and went to buy and at the butcher this kind of steak (chianina) costed then around 40 euro per kilo. So no it's not expensive

Bistecca Fiorentina ❤ one of the best yummy buonissimo nice tour eating traveling enjoy
Love Bistecca alla Fiorentina! There's a trattoria across the street from the front door of our house in Italy (Pontremoli, MS) called Trattoria Peliccia that does wonderful classic cuisine from our area.

The smiles on your faces tells all. Enjoy your adventures together.
Aww thank you so much! 🥰
"Are we supposed to gnaw on the bone now...? I,ll do it. I,ll do it ! " ha ha ha , I love it. (you have such a likeable personality, so natural)
This is great. Pure entertainment. Glad you had the very cool experience and thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you, Dan! 🥰
love how he cuts them in bite sizes, makes the experience even better, she cuts huge chunks which are too big for her mouth
Just ate there last week - great experience. So delicious!!
Really looking forward to this, will be there in July for our 34th anniversary.

A tip, we had a 1.3 kg at that same restaurant before 6 pm and it will only cost you 90 euros and I sliced the remaining meat off the bone
Before 6 pm Is lunch in Italy😂
It looks like you guys really enjoyed & appreciate it, it is fantastically inspiring. I like this too… it could be heaven

always remember that the smaller of the 2 sides of a T bone is the fillet, the larger is the sirloin. Fillet is the nicer side!

But me and my wife did go to few of the places you did recommend. So thank you for the content
Someone should have told you that in Florence, you should eat your bistecca with olive oil. The taste will be even better.
yes, abit of olive oil on the plate with some black pepper
@@Oobe connaisseur !. Italian often add olive oil for the taste.

It seems like a good deal. Bear in mind also that the bone also counts. It is the same here in Spain.

Ahh that’s awesome Lyn, we hope you enjoy it! 😍💯
This steak is actually priced quite reasonably for two people, I've had dry aged ribeye that's 1/4 of the size for $70 a plate.
Hi!! Could you please share the address of this place? Thank you!!
when you have finished the wine, you have begin to speak with gesture as a truly italian
😂😂😂
Back in 2008 I was near Arezzo visiting my father in law and went to buy and at the butcher this kind of steak (chianina) costed then around 40 euro per kilo. So no it's not expensive
What are the payment methods used? Do they accept credit cards?
2:09 Florentine steak is *only rare* . No medium-rare, no medium, no medium-well, no to talk of well-done.
Greetings from Florence. 😁
The Bistecca looks amazing. Sorry to break the news that wine is under €10. Good wines though.
