DOGALI – A tasty aperitif


written by Ilaria Gelichi

It’s nearly 7 pm, time for an aperitif. My friends and I often choose Dogali, a restaurant-café in the Campo di Marte-Stadium area, in Florence. Of course I do not mean the “classic” aperitif, that is a glass of wine, chips and appetizers… At Dogali’s you definitely eat!

Some history: Dogali exists since 1914, when the grandfather of the present owner founded it. Since then Dogali’s success increased and it has become really appreciated by young people, who choose it for lunches, snacks and aperitifs.

Just order something to drink (a glass of wine, a Spritz, a soft drink…) and sit. Especially during the weekend I suggest you to book a table, otherwise finding one it will be very difficult. You can serve yourself at the counter, you will find crostini, focaccia (flat bread with salt and olive oil), appetizers and 2-3 different kinds of pasta. But that’s not all: some nice guys will come to the tables and offer you pastas, risottos and – especially – the well-known delicious Dogali’s coccoli with ham (coccoli are made with fried dough). It not really an aperitif, but a dinner! And the price? The cost of the drink, which is 7-8 euros. It is open for lunch and it is also possible to book a table for dinner. Highly recommended!


Address: Viale Malta, 5r – Florence, Italy

MEDITERRANEAN DREAMS

written by Ilaria Gelichi

SOGNI MEDITERRANEI
(Mediterranean dreams)

Fiesole, Civic Archaeological Museum
June, the 1st – September, the 1st 2013

an exhibition by FRANCO MAURO FRANCHI



 Franco Mauro Franchi was born in Castiglioncello, a small town by the sea near Leghorn, in 1951. He is a sculptor, painter and sketcher. He experienced sculpture for the very fist time when he was a child, in Tarquinia, a small town in southern Tuscany where some relatives of him lived. Tarquinia is situated in the heart of the ancient Etruscan territory and is home of the Etruscan Archaeological Museum. Young Mauro Franco visited quite everyday the museum, being fascinated by those figures lying on their sarcophagus, looking at the horizon. The marks of the chisel on stone sculptures and the fingerprints of the author on terracotta ones made them look very contemporary, and made Mauro’s imagination soar.
Now he has the opportunity of showing his works in Fiesole, home the ancient Etruscan people.

Opening time: everyday, from 10 am to 7 pm
