A Florentine sandwich staple! The shop is considered by locals as a bit over-rated and touristy but it's delicious and one of the cheapest meals we had our entire trip. You can also find this place in NYC and LA, but if you're in Florence you've got to go to the original. p.s. there are quite a few of these in the same location in Florence, if one shop has a long line try looking for another one
