Franchi/Castroni in Prati, Rome (above), is my favourite food shop in the world.
I came across this blog post by Colorado-based travel writer Lisa Bergren (@theworldcalls), on how to grocery shop in Tuscany. My favourite tip: "If there are plastic gloves, wear them to feel the fruit! Otherwise the Italian mamas will scowl at you…"
Then Elettra Fiumi (@EFiumi) told me: "Bread in Tuscany is a religion. Know how to ask for the best ("basso e cotto bene a legna") and know where to find it."
I guess I need to make a trip to Tuscany soon.
