They had everything I requested and were happy to accommodate dietary restrictions. On the day of the event, they arrived on time and were ready to serve our employees without a hitch.

It really brought a smile to everyone's face. They were also wonderfully professional with our employees throughout the event. Highly recommend Papi's Stuffed Sopapillas for your next event, you won't be disappointed!

My favorite so far has been the gyro pocket with the lamb and beef filling. It's a generous amount of meat atop some lettuce and banana peppers that give it an acidic finish along with some diced tomatoes. They do add a sauce on top that taste a bit like thousand island (my only complaint is that sometimes they put too much). If you see the truck, stop by and order a pocket, you won't regret it!

They are so excited about this place, their offerings, and want you to love it. Which I did. They were so helpful, and made the experience worth going back to again and again! Order: The S'mores shake (HOW is this ~200 calories?!) and blue mega tea. Yum! A bit pricey in total, but comparable to any other place in Boston.

Tip: Maybe split a flavor, they are good sized and filling!

If the winter and spring don't get you, the Somerville. Okay they definitely are not as good as the sensational spectacular Pastelaria Vitoria just down the road which are the best Pastels I've ever had outside of Brazil. But they are definitely 5-star worthy and extremely cheap and spectacularly friendly and they make extremely good Abacaxi Com Hortela, which is the pineapple mint drink that I love so much. They have all kinds of other good delicious Brazilian goodies and they are cheap and they are authentic and most of all, the woman here is an angel. And she's one of the friendliest people in all of Boston - so there's no way I'm not giving them five stars even though it's only my second best pastel in the city. Note, it's also one of the best in the country because the US has barely any top notch authentic Brasileno Pastels! And if you're wondering which area it's in... it's in the Pastel-area of course!

I decided to do the touristy thing and take one of the walking tours along the Freedom Trail. Boston Nut Roasters was one of the stops on the walking tour. They have cashews, almonds and peanuts - I opted for the mixed bag for $5. The bag is super tiny and it was mostly peanuts...booo! It was good but I think I should have just gone for a bag of almonds, oh well, next time.

As you may have heard, my brother has an abnormally large head and an unnatural love for peanuts…read more It doesn't matter if it's peanut butter, peanut brittle, peanut fudge, peanut sauce, or peanut oil...if it contains even a trace of peanuts, he'll consume it without hesitation. We usually allow him this one indulgence, but one fateful day, this lusty legume nearly cost him his life. No, we're not talking about an allergic reaction. Rather, something far more dangerous (and nearly traumatic) occurred. Family members were visiting me, and since it was a lovely Saturday, we decided to do the various touristy things that most Bostonians deplore. We were walking along the Freedom Trail, adjacent to Quincy Market, when suddenly my brother stopped dead in his tracks. His eyes rolled back in his head, his foot began to tap the brick sidewalk in rapid tempo, and his nostrils flared as he inhaled impossible volumes of air. Though I had witnessed this behavior as a child, typically when my mother baked peanut butter cookies, I was unprepared for what happened next. My brother bolted across Congress Street, through multiple lanes of moving traffic, darting and weaving around passing vehicles with a precision that seemed unfeasible. Like a prized hound dog, he had picked up a scent, and his nose was carrying him to the source. We tried our best to keep pace with him, but his strength of mind tapped a physical reservoir within himself that we simply couldn't match. We finally found him at 15 State Street, near the Old State House. His schnoz led him approximately three blocks to the Boston Nut Roasters, and there he stood, awaiting his treat. It wouldn't be right to reprimand him for acting upon such a primal impulse, so we gave him a friendly "attaboy" and a playful pat on the head, then tossed the gentleman working the food cart $2 for a bag of their honey roasted peanuts. My brother ate them with abandon, but I couldn't help but wonder whether it was due to the quality of the roasted peanuts or his condition. There was only one way to find out, so I ordered a mixed bag of honey roasted peanuts, cashews, and almonds for the rest of us to sample. Let me preface the ensuing review by stating that I don't share the same love for peanuts as my brother. However, these were REALLY good! The roasting process seemed to enhance the nutty flavors and aromas while somehow softening their texture ever so slightly. The sweet, crunchy coating provided the perfect resistance to the tooth, and it wasn't the least bit sticky or goopy, which I truly appreciated. Though completely unexpected, we had stumbled upon one of Boston's hidden gems - a perfect place to stop for a cheap, filling, and (relatively) healthy snack. We thanked the nut vendor, verbally and with a tip, clipped my brother into his harness to avoid any more unexpected mishaps, and then proceeded to follow the steps of Paul Revere through Boston. Ain't freedom great?
