Was told by a Parisian that they make the best chocolate croissant outside of Paris. Amazing hot chocolate (some single-origin) and cute chocolate mice.

Burnt caramel.

Luke highly recommends the cannoli. Maria Tucker says they fill their cannoli to order, unlike Mike's. Photo via @keneatsgainesville (Instagram).

Better than the more famous Mike's Pastry across the street because the cannoli are filled to order.

Over-hyped. Lobster roll is meh at best. Oysters not properly cleaned. Skip the line.

No-frills contender for Boston's best lobster roll

DUMPLINGS

Yummy Peruvian Italian in the north end :)

Excellent seafood.

Have heard great things about the burger.

Want to go.

Excellent Mediterranean tapas. Fantastic cocktails.

Great brunch, especially the pastries (go early for the best selection. Awesome Bloody Mary.

Not as good as Modern, but good if you need to bring someone a gift from Boston :)

Thursday's, Friday's, & Saturday's. Yuppie crowd.

Tea!

Best donuts in Boston. Used to drive 40 min to Saugus for these...

Best waffles of my life. All about the liege waffle

Great (and extremely well-priced) lunch. Locally sourced.

My favorite restaurant in Boston. Don't miss the smoked uni, quail egg, caviar spoon. Get the omakase the first time; come back for a la carte.

One of Boston's best brunches

All about the inventive nigiri. Sit at the bar.

Can be salty, but so good. Corn is divine. Sweetbreads also good. No reservations!

Easily the best bakery in Boston.

These are good!

Solid

Great for breakfast (shakshuka). These keep popping up around the city.
