We passed by Thinking Cup on our way back to our AirBnB and I couldn't resist dessert
Raspberry meyer lemon tart
Yum! I liked the pie crust and the tart was good.

Vinoteca di Monica - Boston
Bread
Salsiccia (Pizzette with cheese and sausage)
Cheesy bread (not sure what happened to the sausage)
Linguine allo Scoglio $29 and Pappardelle alla Bolognes $24
The linguine allo scoglio was a seafood feast, but the pasta was like swimming in watered down sauce. The pappardelle was really savoury and the bolognese sauce was great.
Tortellini di pollo alla $25 and Fettuccine alla panna $30
The tortellini were kinda disappointing considering the portion and the price. The fettucine was okay.
Overall: The food was good, but considering the portions - it wasn't really good value for money.

The Cheesecake Factory - Boston
An important stop in Boston
Tuxedo Royale Cheesecake
The cheesecake seemed pretty fresh - all those decadent layers of chocolate with cake. Yum.
Eataly - Boston
The rest of the journey to Bunker Hill
Bunker Hill!
They were doing some practice shooting
Hazelnut & pistachio gelato and pear & mixed berry sorbet
The hazelnut gelato is AMAZING! The nutty flavour is just spectacular. The pear sorbet was also really good - I would get those two flavours again.
Pesto and Cheese pizza
Maria's Pastry Shop - Boston
We were following the Freedom Trail from the Boston Commons to Bunker Hill
Update: Restaurant has closed.
Along the way, we stopped by a pastry shop for more Cannoli - Cannoli has become my "thing" in Boston. The quest to find the best pistachio cannoli is my goal.
Pistachio cannoli
It took a little while for them to fill my order - turns out they were piping the cannoli with ricotta cheese in the back and dipping the ends into a pistachio mix and dusting it with icing sugar.
The cannoli was really good - but because it was just ricotta cheese filling - I didn't really get a pistachio flavour (except from the nuts).
Masa - Boston
Masa has a super cheap brunch option: 2 courses for $9.95.
Caramelized Plantain Empanadas
Really cool and pretty tasty
Selection of corn bread and bread with jam, tapenade and something else
Breakfast Tacos
Delicious Latin American flavours in a fun, stylish breakfast
Jalisco Chocolate chip pancakes with mango butter and Huevo Rancheros (sunnyside eggs and cheese, tortilla and beans)
The mango butter was really good which made the pancakes really good too!
Creamy Chorizo scrambled eggs with home fries and toast
Hearty meal
