Podcast: Florence Day Trips with Toni Mazzaglia

Toni Mazzaglia is the founder of Taste Florence food tours and she’s back on the podcast to talk about the best day trips from Florence. There’s Lucca and its stunning Medieval walls and a dish called the Pie with the Beaks. And, Pisa where there’s so much more than the leaning tower. Then, Toni and I talk about our favorites in Bologna. Plus, the hilarious rivalry between Pisa and Florence and why Italy stopped producing beer. [Ep 391]
