ROBERTO CAVALLI STYLE MEETS
OLD SCHOOL FLORENTINE NEGRONI
Giacosa is inviting for late afternoon
cocktails, and the drink of choice is the Negroni.
The mystical union of
Campari, sweet vermouth and gin was invented on this very site at the start of
the 1920s, back when it was Bar Casoni.
I approached the handsome barkeep in
vest and tie and ordered the drink old fashioned-style, one of several
variations on the menu.
He presented it smartly with a garnish of fresh orange
slice, the sweetness complementing my mini baguette with prosciutto di Parma.
One can also get other delights to go or have
them shipped home, such as wickedly good chocolates by weight, Roberto Cavalli Vodka, or Cavalli Tenuta Degli Dei Wine.
Whatever your pleasure, Giacosa is a heady mix of old Euro charm and
of-the-moment glamour, a perfect oasis of calm from the buzzing streets of
Florence.
