Just off the busiest tourist thoroughfare lies one of the last of a dying breed: a fiaschitteria (derived from the word for a flask of wine). It's the proverbial hole in the wall, a doorway about 5 feet deep with rows of wine bottles against the back wall and Armando and Michele Perrino busy behind the counter, fixing sandwiches and pouring glasses of vino.
You stand munching and sipping on the cobblestones of the narrow street surrounded by Florentines on their lunch break and a few bemused tourists. Choose your poison from among 30 stuffing combinations and accompany it with either a basic rosso (red) wine or point to any bottle to try un bicchiere (a glass).
