Giaogiao Duomo — Chinese Restaurant in central Florence
A Chinese restaurant a few steps from the Duomo: GiaoGiao is at Via dei Servi 35R, 350 metres from the cathedral and 150 from the Accademia Gallery, where the David is — about two minutes on foot. The kitchen runs straight through from 11:30 to 21:30, so you can eat in the middle of the afternoon, when most restaurants in the centre have closed between lunch and dinner. Dumplings are folded by hand and the dim sum list runs from shaomai and shrimp dumplings to four kinds of baozi, steamed buns and wontons in broth; steamed sea bass, beef noodles in veal bone broth and the cold dishes are served at this restaurant only. Around € 10 to € 20 per person.

Korea's traditional fermented napa cabbage. The leaves are salted until tender, coated in a paste of chilli, garlic and ginger, then left to ferment for a few days. We make it in our own kitchen: crunchy, spicy and slightly sour, it goes well with dumplings or a bowl of rice. Try it at GiaoGiao Duomo!
