An unexpected encounter with Risotteria Melotti risotto in Florence

The restaurant is run by the Melotti family, who use home-grown rice as a base and pair it with high-quality organic ingredients to infuse each risotto with a unique flavor. What’s even more special is that the restaurant’s menu is 100% gluten-free, which I think is great for people with gluten allergies or those who pay attention to healthy eating. We ordered a classic #mushroomrisotto. I have to say, the deliciousness of this dish is really impressive! The rice core of the risotto is just the right amount of hardness and soft, each grain of rice is distinct, and the rich aroma of the creamy white sauce makes you want to eat one mouthful after another. Although it seems ordinary, it perfectly interprets the true meaning of "simple is delicious". Another dish #RedWineBeefSaffronRisotto features the warm aroma of saffron and the melt-in-your-mouth beef. Although the overall seasoning is a bit ordinary, the tender beef is really popular! After the meal, we couldn't help but order another cup of tiramisu as dessert. The tiramisu here is different from the common version. It has a denser texture and a slightly fibrous feel. Although it is not delicious in my opinion, it is also very special. Overall, Risotteria Melotti Firenze is not only amazing in terms of food, but also very friendly and cordial service. If you are visiting Florence near the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, remember to put this restaurant on your must-visit list! ✅ Risotteria Melotti Firenze 📍 Address: Via dei Servi, 65r, 50122 Firenze FI ⏰ Opening hours: 11:00–23:00 #NaWhereToGo #ItalianRisotto #FlorenceFood #TravelRecommendations #GlutenFreeRestaurants #Florence ##FlorenceTravel #JanuaryGoodPlaces2025
