Portsmouth NH | A Food Lover’s Dream! 🍫🌊❤️

What a delicious second day in Portsmouth! From buttery pastries to seaside romance, this town continues to wow me. Here are the highlights: 🥐 1. Elephantine Bakery – A Must-Try! Discovered this absolute gem of a bakery — and oh my goodness, their Pistachio Chocolate Croissant is life-changing! 🌟🍃🍫 The outside is layered with crispy, nutty pistachio crumble, and the inside is filled with rich pistachio cream and melted chocolate. Every bite is flaky, buttery, and literally melts in your mouth. I hadn’t even finished mine before I promised myself: I WILL return for this! 😍🧡 Run, don’walk — this croissant deserves a fan club! 🔒 2. A Seaside Moment of Romance During a sunset stroll along the harbor, I stumbled upon something beautiful: a fence covered in “love locks” — each one symbolizing a promise, a wish, or a memory made together. ❤️🌎 It reminded me that no matter where we are in the world, love is a language everyone understands. So heartfelt and unexpectedly poetic! 🛣️ 3. Scenic Coastal Drive – Take the Long Way Home If you’re not in a rush heading back to Massachusetts, take Route 1A South along the coast! 🚗💨 It may not be as dramatic as California’s Highway 1, but it has its own quiet charm — peaceful ocean views, quaint cottages, sailboats bobbing in the distance, and that classic New England serenity. Perfect way to end a perfect trip. 🌅🍂 Portsmouth, you’ve been delicious, romantic, and utterly unforgettable. Already planning my next food pilgrimage! 🥨📸 #USA#Portsmouth#PortsmouthNH #FoodieHeaven #ElephantineBakery #CroissantLove #CoastalNewEngland
