Must-Try Bites & Where to Find Them

• Cannoli (Hanover Street): Family bakeries still make some of Boston’s best; try an order fresh and enjoy on a bench.
• Arancini & Pasta: Small trattorias excel at intimate, home-style cooking — go early for best seating.
• Coffee & Espresso: Classic Italian-style espressos and pastries make for a quick, authentic stop.
