-The building SACI is located used to be where Gallileo's last student lived.

-There is a little shop that sells meats and cheeses near SACI, they have a display at the door of 4 stuffed boars eatting lunch...apparently (according to Camila my illustration prof) they have been there eating lunch for over 43 years.

-Tripe sandwiches are very loved by Florntines. (ew)

-The traditional Florentine steak is 4 inches thick, the middle two inches are always rare. It is grilled for a minute or two on top and bottom and served. If you ask for it more cooked, they won't do it.

-According to Camila, Italians don't really eat dessert (which I don't understand because everywhere I go, I see desserty sweet things).
