In trendy Notting Hill, this tile-floored trattoria offers authentic Italian dishes with a light touch, such as gnocchi a la gorgonzola, made with light potato dumplings in a rich creamy sauce, and crespoline a la parmesana crisp pancakes with ricotta and spinach. That makes it perfect for a lunch, or dinner spot, and its intimate atmosphere will delight just as much as its food. Other specialties include veal knuckle with risotto and calves liver in butter. Curvy wrought-iron, Italian post cards, and a restaurant cat add a personal touch to this friendly restaurant, which as its name suggests favours Tuscan cooking in the great Italian firmament.
