Dine and Dash: Bova’s and the North End
Mr Alyk and I took a late-night stroll through the North End Wednesday evening, enjoying the sights, the sounds, and the smells of Boston’s famous Italian neighborhood. While enjoying the coziness of the area, we stumbled upon one of our greatest culinary finds in a long time: A. Bova and Sons Bakery, selling sweet Italian pastries and fresh breads twenty-four hours a day, every day.
Boston, despite its reputation as a world class city, is not a twenty-four hour city, making this find even more significant. Bova’s serves sandwiches and pizza during the day, but not between 1 AM and 6 AM. After the bars close, you’ll have to make due with cannoli, tiramisu, and lobster tails.
Sunday, we’ll take the Orange Line to Haymarket and walk to Hanover Street, where we’ll drink espresso and cappuccino until we start to shake. Then it’s off to Bova’s to get messed up on sugary pastries for the dash.
