October 20, 2016 Très Petite Crêperie

I decided to take a trip into suburbia, Lexington to be exact, to try out the crepes at Très Petite Crêperie. They’re a little hard to find if you aren’t familiar with the area, as they are down a little side alley that isn’t picked up by navigation all the time. There is parking just outside their […]

September 19, 2016 Bova’s Bakery

Sure, you know Mike’s and you know Modern, but do you know about Bova’s Bakery in the North End? It’s a little off the beaten path compared to the other two but it is equally as delicious. Bova’s has been family owned and operated since 1932 – they make delicious desserts and fresh breads. Not […]

September 15, 2016 Mike’s Pastry Harvard Square

I love a good restaurant rivalry. It’s like the New Haven pizza rivalry, are you a Pepe’s or a Sally’s? Here, it is the battle of the cannoli, are you a Mike’s Pastry or a Modern Pastry (maybe a Bova’s)? The shops are located across the street from one another in the North End and […]

September 1, 2016 Danish Pastry House

I had mentioned to a friend that I was going to Watertown to look at dining room tables. When I told her where it was, she asked me if I was going to the Danish Pastry House. I had seen the Danish Pastry House selling their sweet treats at local farmers markets, but didn’t know that […]

August 29, 2016 Centerville Pie Company

My family and I had spent the day in Hyannis and decided to stop in to Centerville Pie Company on the way home. Sound familiar? Yup, they’re Oprah famous! In 2009, co-owners Laurie and Kristin opened the 18 seat bakeshop. That summer, Kristin heard that Gayle and Oprah were in town, so she boxed up one of […]

Harbor Sweets makes my favorite candy of all time, sweet sloops, almond buttercrunch toffee covered in white chocolate, dipped in dark chocolate and pecans. So I was excited to try out their new line that will be making its debut on September 6th. Gather chocolates are handmade and each package contains 6 honey infused chocolates. The […]

May 4, 2016 Cinco de Mayo at Kane’s Donuts

Cinco de Mayo is tomorrow and for this preg-o food blogger, I have to celebrate it sober! I popped into Kane’s Donuts in the Financial District on Tuesday to preview their special margarita donut. Tomorrow is the only day that you can get this specialty donut, so hurry in, they’ll sell out quickly. The shop is […]

March 22, 2016 Kane’s Donuts Pop Up at The Street

I didn’t know I even craved donuts that much until Kane’s Donuts took over the pop up shop at The Street in Chestnut Hill. As soon as you walk in, not only are you greeted with a smile and a friendly hello, but you are also greeted with a sugar high. The smell of the […]
