Modern Pastry Shop

Pastry shop · North End

"Not only does this bakery have arguably the best sign in Boston (sorry, Citgo), but it also has hands down the best sfogliatella in Boston. These flaky, orange-flavored, ricotta-filled pastries hail from Napoli, and Modern’s version will (if you close your eyes on a warm day) take you on a little trip to the city of their origin." - Tanya Edwards
