Hanover Street connects downtown Boston to the historic North End, running straight through the heart of Paul Revere’s old neighborhood. On a warm sunny day, it seems like half of New England is here soaking up the history and enjoying the atmosphere. Along Hanover Street are numerous wonderful pastry shop known for their cannoli, a Sicilian treat made of a tube of fried pastry dough filled with a creamy ricotta cheese-based filling. You can get cannoli at nearly every pastry shop in the North End, but if you want cannoli from Mike’s Pastry, you’ll need to wait in line. I’ve done so many times, and I’ve never regretted it.
