| "Burdèl"
was the nick name of people, originally
all from Romagna, selling pigs. One of
them, called Barducci, started a wine-shop
in 1901, called "Da Burde" and which was
then in Via di Peretola. The final move
to the present Via Pistoiese took place
in 1927.
Barducci's nephew Turiddo
took over and also inherited his nick
name. With his wife, Irene, he was a living
monument to the vocation of inn-keeper.
Originally, everything
was sold here, including whips and oats
for horses. Today they still sell delicacies
like sopressata, finocchiona, and typical
plates from the true Florentine kitchen
and paintings depicting the adventures
of Pinocchio adorn the wall.
The telephone number
is +39 055 317206.
