Okay, I apologize, but I just had to use that legendary quote from The Godfather as a lead in to a little North End pastry tour....
Have a wicked sweet tooth as of late? Just looking for a mid week pick me up. There's no better place than the North End for delicious Italian pastries like cannoli, ricotta pie, torrone, biscotti, you name it!
With the list below, you could wander the North End for days eating pastries, and pick up a lot of the local neighborhood heritage and European style while you're at it.
Stop drooling! Start walking the bakery trail....stop drooling! Here's a short list to get you started, but be adventurous and see what else you can find. There are plenty more bakeries and treats to find in the North End!
