Lesson #62 Restaurants for groups

     In Italy, it's weird to be by yourself, but if you have an odd number or more than 4 people, it is also weird. We discovered this in Florence . . . Apparently good family run restaurants can turn away your business, especially if you have 10 girls. Well, this good family-run restaurant tried to run in fear from 10 American girls who would sit 2 by 2 just to be fed. They seriously did not want our business, so when that happens, hit the streets and discover your own recommendation spots! The evil restaurant that turned us away was also apparently, only so-so. So, we wandered around Florence and found a place happy to take 10 people and feed them! We all ordered delicious red wine and amazing lasagna. The restaurant ended up being only 2 blocks away from our hotel too! If you're going to Florence, I highly recommend "Le Volpi e L'uva" (also known as "The Fox and the Grape")! It is used often by Bus2Alps groups, and has some gorgeous Italian men serving!

     So, Lesson #62: Find a place named after an animal eating grapes. Chances are, it's quite delicious and has cute Italian servers :)
