About this activity

We never leave the neighborhood – we only walk three blocks. But we metaphorically travel the whole peninsula of Italy, tasting the regional foods so proudly represented in Boston’s historic North. Journey from Sicily for arancini and pizza to Naples for authentic Neapolitan pizza and Sorrento for gnocchi. Visit a neighborhood wine shop to master Italian wine pairing, then uncover secrets of the Mediterranean diet with an extra virgin olive oil tasting. Sample 12-year aged balsamic vinegar, Parma prosciutto, and Sardinian sheep’s milk cheese in a bustling market. Conclude at an artisan bakery with 160-year-old sourdough yeast, ending at a local caffe for espresso, cannoli, and gelato. The most comprehensive telling of how the North End became Italian. Built on 20 years of relationships with the neighborhood’s small businesses... personal enough that every tour is led by myself to ensure the best quality experience possible.
