Monica’s Mercato, the longtime specialty grocery store at 130 Salem Street is expanding into the adjacent retail space in the same building. Brought to our attention by North Ender Adam Castiglioni (BHT Blog), construction is well underway at the location next to Bova’s Bakery on the corner of Prince Street. Monica’s Mercato is owned and operated by the North End’s Mendoza Brothers also of Trattoria di Monica and Vinoteca di Monica.
