L'Ora d'Aria

A curious name for this restaurant in Via dei Bagnetti. “L'Ora d'Aria” would be literally the hour of air, or the time an inmate spends out of his cell, usually in the yard of a prison. The building of the “Domenicani” (Blackfriars), a former prison, is just across the street.

A sporting club called “Colosseum” would certainly train amateur gladiators. They probably eat at the nearby “L'Ora d'Aria”.

The “Fosso Reale” (Royal Canal) was originally a moat of sorts surrounding the older part of Livorno. “Al Fosso Reale”, is a restaurant on the Scali delle Cantine, facing the “Fortezza Nuova” where the canal forms a wider basin. They promise you the lost flavors and the smells of the Tuscan cooking.
