Boston: The Phallic Food (Phood?) Edition

Annia n' Banana

  

This banana survived a twelve-hour Greyhound ride, half an hour of the Boston subway system and a walk around Harvard Square in her purse. Go Banana!

We went to the renowned Mike's Pastry in Boston's North End (Little Italy) for some treats because nearly everyone we met in Boston talked about Mike's Pastry like it was a mecca of all pastry shops and how we just HAD TO go there. They're famous for their Cannoli, so I got one, and boy, not only was it fun to eat, but it was damn yummy. They now ship Cannoli anywhere in the US! Try one!

Burrito!

  

Okay, so that's like what, three inches in diameter? Take that three inch diameter and multiply it by TWELVE inches in length and you have one mother of a burrito. It was bigger than MY FACE. El Pelon Taqueria is one of the best places I've ever gotten authentic Mexican food at (the other is El Taurino somewhere in LA county) and it's so very affordable. Oh, and by the by, this is totally a fish burrito. I was this close to trying a fish taco, but the guy at the counter recommended the burrito instead. Eh, next time.
