Cibrèo Trattoria (Cibrèino)
The affordable face of Fabio Picchi's Sant'Ambrogio cult kitchen
The food-market soul of Florence, where the Cibreo galaxy and the Sant'Ambrogio mercato feed the neighbours first.
If you want to understand how Florentines actually eat, you start at the Sant'Ambrogio market, smaller and far less touristed than the central one. Around it orbits a genuine constellation: the Cibreo galaxy, the no-fuss tables of Da Rocco inside the market hall, L'Ortone's piazza terrace and the slow-cooked tradition of La Pentola dell'Oro. This is the working food soul of the city, and it cooks for its neighbours first.
