This was the BESTELITEEVENTEVER(I’m not a fan of allcaps but i had to shout that out). I realize I need to work harder or else I might lose my invitations to amazing meals like this. I did NOT expect a full multi-course seated meal. The restaurant was incredibly generous, and also really, really good. I will come back here for a special fancy meal. The game we played was a LOT of fun, despite the fact that Kristina made me head of the group after a long workday: D(Sometimes i just want to sit back and watch!). And I enjoyed talking with Jessica and her husband, it’s always fun to learn about other experiences. She said someone back home offended Unilocal and it was like they called her baby ugly. I just love passionate people. As for the food, I’m going to write a separate review of the restaurant :)

The was my first Elite event and I had a fantastic time. Thanks to Kristina’s amazing organizational skills, we were treated to a 4-course meal(all fish), games, prosecco, and lots of laughs. It was a pleasure meeting friends new and old. This really is a great group. The restaurant was elegant with a fantastic location on the Arno by the Ponte Vecchio. I couldn’t have asked for a better evening.

Grazie Mille isn’t even enough thanks for the amazing time we had at this special Unilocal Elite event. Firenze is so lucky to have Kristina G. as Unilocal CM! So sweet, so hospitable… she welcomed my husband and I to the event as though we were royalty. And then there was the welcome from the fellow Unilocal Eliters… Alexandra, Riccardo, Chiara, Gian…, and others who’s names escape me. But wow — — what a generous welcome to a couple of foreigners. And then there was the event itself. Whoa! What an event! Not only did Kristina G organize all the details — — adorable name tags at the seats, table activities, but clearly the owner of the restaurant and staff also pulled out all the stops to ensure that we all had an amazing time.(And that, we did!) I was expecting a smaller samplings of the food — — but I think it was like a 7 course meal; each bite as decadent as the one before. I honestly really enjoyed it all… but I like the pistachio-crusted tuna & the seabass pasta entrée. AND the dessert– — what a concoction! Wine was flowing no doubt… But again, I am so grateful to Kristina G for welcoming us to the event and that Unilocal allows us to connect with others in other cities in the world to share our passions of great, local food and community! If anyone is wondering, yes — achieving Unilocal Elite status is worth it by events like this! :-)
