Trattoria Cammillo
Family-run since 1945, the Oltrarno trattoria Florentines and insiders book
The artisan left bank where Florence still works in leather, gold leaf and natural wine, far from the crowds.
The left bank of the Arno is where Florence still makes things by hand: leather ateliers, gilding studios, and frame-makers working behind unmarked doors, just as they have for centuries. For the Istanbul visitor who tires of the cruise-group current around the Uffizi, this is the city's quieter, more credible self, anchored by a generation of serious wine bars and design-led guesthouses. You cross one bridge and the volume drops by half.
