Feasts," during the last weekend of August every year.
A sampling tent in the North End will showcase
Dragone® Cheese. From August
28th - 30th attendees can taste
Dragone's® family of cheeses as they enjoy the Feast's
wonderful parades, classic Italian-American entertainment,
strolling singers and beautiful decorations. Attendees are
encouraged to stop by and sample Dragone® Cheese Lemon

Kalamata Olives tossed in an olive oil garlic sauce, dolloped with
savory Dragone® Ricotta Cheese, and topped with

Dragone® Cheese is a Boston original since 1899. Many in the New
England area know it as the cheese they grew up with. Through
sampling and recipe demonstrations at the Feast,
Dragone® Cheese will introduce several new products,
including:
- Dragone® Fresh Mozzarella Cheese – a smooth,
creamy texture that is perfect for salads, snacks and burgers
- Dragone® Shredded Parmesan Cheese – excellent
in breading for baked fish or chicken recipes

Asiago, & fresh Romano) – ideal for adding a cheesy burst
of flavor to pastas or sauces
