prato hotels and villas

Prato is situated 61 meters above sea level in the plain which is traversed by the Bisenzio River between Pistoia and Florence. It is an important industrial center expecially in the textiles field. Prato's cooking doesn't differ much from that of nearby Florence, but it presents some typical dishes: the original "polpette alla pratese," meatballs with veal, ham, potatoes, eggs, pine nuts and raisins; a flavorful vegetable and bean soup.In Prato's traditional pastry shops one can acquire the famous Prato "biscotti": "cantucci"' and "brutti boni," also called almond cookies. These are eaten with the classic "Vin Santo," a sweet and agreeable Tuscan liquore.
