Modern Pastry

Modern Pastry is the place to go for Gluten Free

Boston's North End is well known for fine Italian food. On any given night, you'll find people line up by restaurants on Hanover Street.

The best way to finish off the night is an Italian dessert treat. Lucky for you there are a lot of choices.

Some great places to try are:

What About Gluten-Free Options?

Last month we were looking for a place that offered Gluten Free dessert for my daughter. We went to all the above places and only found one place that offered anything that was gluten-free.

The only places that we're able to help us on a busy Saturday night were Modern Pastry.

Bova
Our first stop was Bova's. We had visited before and thought they said they had Gluten-Free treats. But when we inquired about options we were told that they didn't have many options.

Mike's Pastry
Our next stop took us to Mike's Pastry. It was a busy night, the line wasn't out the door, but it was crazy inside. The only thing that's Gluten-Free at Mike's is the Italian ice cream. We wanted something more.

This was the only place that let us know that they had Gluten-Free options. Even on a busy Saturday night, they took the time to let us know what they had available. We selected the Whoopie Pie.

About

This series of posts will cover some tips and tricks that I have learned about my twelve-year-old daughter's gluten-free lifestyle in the Boston area. Gluten-free eating can be challenging in any big city, but especially in Boston due to the high number of restaurants and availability of options. I've been learning what I can to make sure my daughter can still enjoy eating out, and I want to share what I've learned so that other families in the same situation can benefit.
