Hei La Moon

Chinese restaurant · Downtown

"This gilded dim sum destination relocated to a smaller space in 2022 and changed its name to Food Opera, but the food and the experience remain top-notch. The menu is full of good bets here, including the taro dumplings, bok choy drizzled in oyster sauce, and steamed roast pork buns. (Looking for more dim sum? Empire Garden Restaurant and Winsor Dim Sum Cafe are two other go-tos in the neighborhood.)" - Nathan Tavares, Valerie Li Stack, Eater Staff

North End

· North End

The North End, Boston’s Little Italy, is a maze of narrow streets with some of the city’s oldest buildings. On the self-guided Freedom Trail, tourists pass historic sites like the 1680 Paul Revere House and the Old North Church, which played a key role at the beginning of the Revolutionary War. Italian restaurants, coffeehouses, pastry shops and old-school delis pack the area, especially on lively Hanover Street.
