Florentine Secrets....

the entrance, slightly cracked open...

What better way to conclude a Saturday night out than with a freshly baked delicious pastry? There is no better way!....So Florence has these so called "secret bakeries" around the city that provide baked goods to many local cafes.  BUT they also provide tasty treats to those night owls who wait up til 2 am for their doors to open.

These locations have no signs, but the smell that hits you a few blocks away is a great indicator that you are on the right street.  Word of mouth is how these places make business to locals, and from the line that was forming behind us, they aren't doing so bad.

You walk through the cracked door, and an Italian man is there to greet you.  You give him your order (there isn't a menu) or point at something and that's that.  Best of all. Its only ONE EURO! can't beat that!  Where ever will I find these in the states?
