Mike's Pastry
North End·$
Lobster Tail Pastry
$2.75
Puff pastry filled with whipped cream and dusted with powdered sugar.
Tip: Get both a cannoli and a lobster tail — they're different enough that having both gives you variety without major commitment.

Modern Pastry
North End·$
Sfogliatelle
$4.50
Flaky pastry layered with ricotta filling and candied fruits, a Neapolitan specialty.
Tip: If you want something beyond cannoli, the sfogliatelle is worth trying — it's more complex and impressive as a pastry.
