Here is Gianfranco cutting through a Fiorentina, a steak seemingly made with the meat of several cows, and one of the best to be had outside of Argentina: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbuhler/46053510/in/set-1006213/
Bisteca Fiorentina... There is an excellent restaurant behind the market called Mario's. Only serves lunch weekdays and you get to share large tables with strangers. The most enjoyable meal I can recall as a tourist. And I had several, on all days of my honeymoon there.
I digress: in front of the meat counter they have a sign which explains how they cannot cook Fiorentina any more than rare. I refuse to eat pink meat so I have never tried it, but it certainly is a part of my beloved Firenze.
Thanks for bringing back the memories. Kostas
