Like many communities south of Boston, the city of Quincy is known in part for its bar pizza, and a mystery person has been purchasing a huge number of them for local first responders.
According to City of Quincy consultant and publicist Kerry J. Byrne, an unknown woman wearing a black hoodie and a ball cap has walked into Rags Tavern on Washington Street three times over the past couple of weeks and ordered $200 in bar pizza each time, with the first delivery going to the Quincy Police Department, the second going to the Quincy Fire Department, and the third being sent to EMTs at Brewster Ambulance. Courtney Rego, who is manager of Rags, says that "I've seen her in here before, but I don't know who she is....Either way, we're happy to be a part of her effort to feed local first responders and delighted to know that there are so many great people out there working to help our neighbors on the front lines of the battle against Coronavirus."
Byrne tells us that the three orders amount to approximately 25 bar pizzas each, or 75 pizzas in total that have gone to first responders in the city.
