The iconic symbol of Italian street cuisine is L’Antico Vinaio. Prominent globally, it has established sandwich shops in cities like Milano, New York, Los Angeles, Roma, and Las Vegas, and now it’s set to arrive in Romeo and Juliet’s city. The brand’s creator and now loved public figure, Tommaso Mazzanti, made the announcement on Valentine’s Day while kneeling in front of Juliet’s well-known monument. The opening is set for March.
Thus, in a few weeks, the stuffed Tuscan schiacciata—one of the great treasures of Florentine tradition—will call Via Mazzini home. Additionally, there are already anticipated to be significant lines to sample the well-known dish. Just consider that three to four thousand people visit Mazzanti’s sandwich shop in Florence each day.
