Pizza
If you have found a luxury villa in Florence, you are probably planning to track down and visit as many of the city's important tourist attractions and cultural gems as possible and that's busy work that will be sure to work up an appetite! Tuscany and Florence, in particular, are wonderful places to be hungry as there is a wealth of incredible dishes and a staggering amount of restaurants and eateries to choose from. If you are planning your visit for March, then you're really in luck as that is when Taste, the biggest foodie festival in the city, takes place!

Now in its 13th edition, Taste is an annual hybrid fair for both traders and the general public that began in 2006 and is an exploration and celebration of food, beverages, hospitality and restaurants in Italy. Planned as a collaboration between Pitti Immagine Srl and Davide Paolini, the fair will take place at Stazione Leopolda from March 10th to 12th this year.
It will present products and ideas from around 300 companies that are coming from all around Italy and take visitors on a journey of new tastes, traditions and innovations. There will also be a Taste Shop, where you can buy the products you have learned about and tried at the festival to bring home with you.

Attracting large crowds, it is a popular event that, in 2014, attracted 15,000 visitors, 4,500 buyers, and 600 accredited journalists and sold 23,000 products in just 3 days. For fans of famous and delicious Italian food, it is an absolute must-see event that you won't want to miss out on! So, head to the Stazione Leopolda, a mere stone's throw from centre of Florence and the Santa Maria Novella train station and check the event out for yourself! Be sure to look into the “Fuori di Taste”, or “Out of Taste”, a series of events from the festival that will take place in beautiful Florentine eateries and bars, as well. For more details, just head over to the official Taste Website.

Opening hours for the Public:
Saturday the 10th: from 2.30 pm until 7.30 pm
Sunday the 11th: from 2.30 pm until 7.30 pm
