Guitarist Steve Vai: If you’re ever in Florence, treat yourself to La Giostra! – 2022 – Prince Soldano d’Asburgo – Website – Italy
With my buddy “Prince Soldano d’Asburgo” who owns and runs one of the finest eateries in Florence. It’s personally my world favorite. This man has more world travel miles under his wheels than I do on a tour bus. If you’re ever in Florence, treat yourself to La Giostra!

HISTORY
More than twenty-five years ago a Habsburg prince and his three sons got together to share their family traditions and ancient recipes with the people of Florence.
The news of a noble family struggling with plates and napkins caused a sensation, but not for everyone. The friends who used to gather around the prince’s table at the family castle in Chianti knew very well the magic of his dishes and had often urged him to open a restaurant.
What is our secret? Well, it’s simple: we are children of time. Old and new flavors mixed with authentic passion.
Our tradition goes on thanks to the love of our family “La Giostra” led by Soldano who personally oversees the winery and who manages the restaurant with a deep respect for his heritage, touching each guest with his own warmth and charm, just like his father has been doing it for so many years.
