Boston Harbor and Little Italy

Last night I went with a friend to explore the Boston harborside and try some delicious Italian food.

Apparently Giacomo's on Hanover St. is worth the hour long wait in line. Luckily, when we went the line was so short that we waited for about 10 minutes at max. The restaurant is cash-only so make sure you get some (if you forget to get cash, there's an ATM machine right across the street from the restaurant). The food was hands down the best Italian food I had! 

Next on the "to-do" list was Mike's Pastry. They have a wide variety of Italian pastry, but what surprised me was that everything was supersized! The eclairs were more like the size of large hot dogs! I got a tiramisu, but the cream was a bit too heavy for my taste. But hey, you might like it so check it out!

In addition, there were beautiful Christmas lights all around Quincy market. All-in-all, a superb evening!
