The restaurant From Burdehistorical icon of traditional Florentine cuisineled by the brothers Paolo and Andrea Gori the best trattoria in Italy 2023 for the 50 Top Italy guide signed by the food critics Barbara Guerra, Luciano Pignataro and Albert Sapere. There are two other Tuscan positions, that is, at number 38 it is located the Futura Osteria of Monteriggioni in the province of Siena and then back to Florence, in penultimate position with L’Ortone. The recognition comes from the guide made up of several sections of catering, that of modern trattorias and bistros is the first of the rankings that collects the backbone of Italian catering, with family businesses, often open for several generations. The trattorias and inns of the Bel Paese – underline Barbara Guerra, Luciano Pignataro and Albert Sapere, the three editors of the guide – they represent the authentic gastronomic soul of the nation. Presidia of the territories that make up the Peninsula, act as a trait d’union between farmers, breeders, winemakers, artisans and all the inhabitants and visitors of a place. A tradition, therefore, that should not be abandoned at all, but rather should be implemented and modernized according to the new needs of the public and above all following the concepts of environmental and economic sustainability, which have now become essential elements of catering as well. We are surprised and happy – continues Paolo Gori – the first place overall. I don’t know how to explain it to myself except thinking that we have never bent to fashion, or to easy dishes, such as burgers or tartare, no tiramisu. We are very real, tough, Tuscan, we do not mystify anything, we do not want to please, customers choose us for our identity, authenticity, characters that I believe always reward us also because we are not even easy to reach. Ours is a suburban area, certainly not a facility.
