4457 Right addresses for "schiacciata" in Florence

As I have seen useful and interesting posts on this Forum about "cool" places where you can find local specialties I thought I may be of help with a post about another typical italian product such as "schiacciata" (or focaccia). Before continuing with this post, I would like to make clear that it does not want to be an advert for the mentioned shops but merely a simple suggestion. There are indeed lots of other good places all over Florence where you can find a delicious schiacciata.

If you try and say the magic word “Pugi” to any Florentine, they will roll their eyes to heaven and sigh “... Oh, la schiacciata del Pugi...”. It's no advertising claim, it's a fact: for several decades already, Pugi has simply been a synonym for schiacciata all'olio,
the fragrant local flat bread seasoned with only the finest olive oil. The many types of bread, the crispy pizzas and the lavishly stuffed focaccias are just as popular with the mixed crowds of students, housewives and office workers that fill the Pugi bakeries at all times of the day, and one more Pugi shop has just opened in Via San Gallo by popular demand.
No less enticing are their sweet specialities, based on traditional recipies:at this time of the year, try some frittelle di riso (sweet rice fritters) or a pandiramerino (rosemary bun). And should you still be around in the Fall, don't miss the delicious schiacciata con l'uva (flat bread with grapes). Focacceria Pugi can be found in:
Piazza San Marco 9/B
Via San Gallo 62r
Viale De Amicis 49r

Buon appetito,
Alberto (aka Mante)
