San Marcello Piteglio's incredible 227-metre-long suspension bridge, which connects the two sides of the River Lima, is a must-see. It's free to enter and can be accessed by heading towards Abetone and taking the left turn after San Marcello Pistoiese. There is a car park, a bar and a small lake.
The bridge was opened in June 1923 following a request from Vincenzo Douglas Scotti, owner of a metallurgical company. It was designed to enable workers from Popiglio to reach the factories on the opposite side. In 1990, it was entered into the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest suspension bridge ever built, a record later beaten by the Akashi Kaikyō Bridge in Japan.

If you’ve ever wondered how Italians always seem to find the good food… it’s because we almost never check reviews.

We have a different system — less logical, more instinctive — but it works. Here’s how we actually choose a restaurant:

1. We look at the menu — but not what you think.
We’re checking how many dishes there are.
If the menu reads like a novel, we walk away.
Too many options = frozen food.
Short menu = someone is actually cooking.

2. We glance at the pasta shape.
If every pasta is the same noodle with different sauces, no thank you.
If the shapes change — pici, paccheri, tagliolini, orecchiette — that’s usually a good sign.

3. We look through the door, not at the reviews.
Are there locals inside?
Are people talking loudly?
Does the waiter look stressed in a good way, like he’s actually working?
Perfect.

4. The bread test.
If the bread looks sad, dry, or factory-made… that tells you everything you need to know.

5. We avoid restaurants with giant signs in English.
Menus in English are fine — Rome and Florence are full of tourists.
But giant banners like “BEST PASTA IN TOWN!” or “HOME MADE PIZZA!”
No Italian believes those signs.

6. We check the specials of the day.
If a place has written daily specials (ideally handwritten)… they’re cooking what they found at the market that morning.
That’s gold.

7. We read the room before we sit.
Tourist trap restaurants feel like airports:
waiters outside begging you to come in, laminated menus, photos of spaghetti.
We don’t go there.
Ever.

8. We look at the simplest dishes.
If the cacio e pepe or amatriciana looks right on a nearby table, we stay.
If it looks like yellow cream or ketchup… goodbye.

9. We don’t trust empty dining rooms at 1 PM.
In Italy, good food brings people early.
If the tables are empty during peak lunch hours, that’s a warning sign.

10. And the final rule: we follow our nose.
If you can smell garlic gently frying from the street — that’s your place.
If you smell nothing, or only fried oil… keep walking.
