- On my first child's due date I had heard that eating Italian food could bring on contractions, so my husband and I drove over to the Italian North End for a delicious meal at one of the tiny little restaurants there. The food was incredible but she still didn't arrive until two weeks later.
We go back to the Italian North End as often as possible. The food there can't be beat.
