Boston

Was up in Boston for a wedding last month, and had a couple hours to spend in the city. So of course most of the time spent looking for food.

Lobster roll from Boston & Maine Fish Company
Unfortunately, it wasn't very good. The roll was very hard and just had a little lobster meat slathered on top with nothing but lettuce actually inside the roll.

forgot what this is called...

Mike's Pastry, famous cannoli shop

The line didn't go down the block, so it wasn't as crowded as usual.

getting cannolis

Unfortunately the cannolis were so good that most were consumed before I had time to take a photo >_>
