Sink your teeth into this
If you’re from East Boston, chances are you’re no stranger to Carmella’s Market. Tucked away in the heart of the neighborhood, this cozy spot isn’t just a market—it’s a community hub where great food and familiar faces come together.
One of the stars of Carmella’s is their sandwich menu, and at the top of the list? The famous Jeffries Point. This isn’t just a sandwich; it’s a masterpiece. Layers of fresh, thinly-sliced Italian meats, sharp provolone, and a drizzle of house-made vinaigrette, all nestled between slices of perfectly crusty bread. Add in crisp lettuce, juicy tomatoes, and a hint of spice, and you’ve got a flavor-packed bite that’s as vibrant as the neighborhood it’s named after.
Next time you’re in the area, stop by Carmella’s and treat yourself. Trust us, the Jeffries Point is worth the hype. Put it on your lunchtime list!
