Zeppola’s for St. Joseph’s Day:

For once I was in the right place at the right time. It’s St. Joseph’s Day, I was in the North End, and so I could get a zeppola from Maria’s Pastry. Heaven! With ricotta and cherry filling, it’s basically an Italian doughnut. It sure beats cannoli. #stjosephsday #zeppole #northend #boston #thatsitalian #sweet #mangia #ricotta
