| What a great collection of stops to sample some yummy food. Particularly enjoyed the restaurant (and the food tasting) Hot Chocolate ... the best I've ever tasted. Above all, our guide, Ben, was bubbling over with enthusiasm the entire way ... hard not to be enthusiastic with him around!
Definitely recommend this tour. TB |

| Be sure to arrive hungry as there will be more food than you might expect at each "tasting" and it's terrific. Another pleasant surprise was the variety of architectural styles that were pointed out and described. Kent, our guide, was friendly, informative, and fun. I will absolutely recommend this tour to friends and I hope to take the other one you offer sometime in the future. |

| Wow! This food tour was great! From George's Hot Dog stand to icream I had a blast walking through Bucktown and Wicker Park. I am not a huge fan of hot dogs nor do I like Chocolate, but when you take a bite of George's Chicago Style Hot Dog you can't help but savor every taste. And Hot Chocolate seriously needs to come to California...their hot chocolate was divine!!!!! And to put the cherry on top, Kent (our Guide) was fantastic! He knew absolutely everything from food to other great hot spots to architecture of the beautiful homes around the area. I definately will be visiting Chicago again soon and will hit up the other food tour and obviously request Kent as the guide. Two thumbs way way up! |

| I recommend going on the bucktown food tour. Our tour guide was very helpful and gave us great information on the history and political views of the area. I was really happy with all of the food choices and venues selected for the tour. GREAT! |

| Tour was very interesting with lots of great information on the neighborhoods (past &present). Our tour guide, a very lovely, enthusiastic and entertaining young lady
really made the tour a lof of fun! I have recomended this tour to many friends and relatives. The food was great except for the anti-pasta salad, 3 of 4 in our group did not care for it. |

| What a wonderful adventure we had- everything was so well organized with a delightful and energetic guide who was kind, observant of all of us, efficient with serving the samples, friendly in each establishment where we enjoyed their specialty food and beverage--plus he was able to answer any questions we had and was very knowledgeable about the neighborhoods. It was a well worthwhile use of our time and money :) Great fun! Thanks for the memories!! We plan on doing more of the same. |

| We enjoyed all the restaurant stops. Our guide was friendly and very informative. We felt this tour had more food than the Lincoln Park tour. We enjoyed the LIncoln Park tour for the arquitecture part more. |
