Tour and Food
Sat, Sep 19  11:30 AM GaryJoelD Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
We have taken the other food tour twice and loved it. The food on this tour was fantastic! It seemed as though our guide spoke from memory and felt canned. On previous tours the guides felt less canned and more off the cuff.

Informative

For someone who just moved to chicago, our guide was enthusiastic and displayed his love for food and Chicago. Though we had already been to Hot chocolate previously, the other food places were great to learn about and dine in. Definitely would recommend this tour and will sign up for the other one as well

GREAT!!!!

Thoroughly enjoyed this tour visiting many vendors that I normally would never see, i.e. spice shop. I really like the beet sauce and Reuben Sandwich at Askenaz deli and the spinach and mozarella cheese stuffed pizza. Jen was absolutely terrific with her knowledge of the area and history of Chicago. She puts so much enthusiasm and style to her tours. I will gladly return to Chicago and retake this tour as well as the Bucktown/Wicker Park tour again. thanks for the experience. Betty Walters

Our tour guide was Jen, she kept us entertained, fed and educated. Appreciated her comments regarding the 3 neighborhoods you pass thru on the tour. She got all of us involved during the tour, worked well introducing oursleves before we started the tour, she was great. The shops all nice and were all locally owned. Great Neighborhoods. At the "The Spice house" spot we had the chance to hear a presentation from the owner of the business, very informative. My wife and I had a great time - weather was perfect.

So much to eat we walked back to Rush Street!

Bucktown was a good choice as we would have never gone there otherwise. Very cool up and coming community. Have you ever had ice cream made from Nitrogen? My first experience too! Peace out at the pub with pizza and local Chicago beer. My favorite though, was the delicous chocolate drink from "Hot Chocolate" Lots of local history as well as review of other restaurants we just happened to be by. We wanted to try the Speak Easy but never made it back! We ate so much that we felt incredibly guilty and walked back to our hotel near Rush Street. It toook nearly 3 hours, but it was a lovely day!

A Fantastic Tour!
Fri, Sep 18  11:30 AM LallyCollins Unspecified Unspecified Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
Food, history, culture, architecture, politics, and local insight, the Wicker Park food tour was an absolute highlight of our trip to Chicago. Initially, we weren't sure if it was going to be kind of goofy, but it actually was a very informative, entertaining and tasty time. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and fun, and we had a blast! I would highly recommend this tour to everyone. And bring your appetite!

This tour was so informative, interesting & fun. Not only did we get to taste different foods, spices, oils & vinegars, but we learned about some of the neighborhoods. Our tour guide, Nicki, was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable about the areas and made the whole experience a fantastic time. Thank you Nicki.

Fun Way to Experience Chicago Food & Neighborhoods
Fri, Sep 18  11:00 AM reedlib Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
My husband & I really enjoyed this tour. Our guide, Jen, was just wonderful! She gave us a lovely tour of three local neighborhoods, giving us bits of information on the history, architecture and local events in each. She was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic---you could tell she enjoys what she's doing and is a real "people person". The food was varied, interesting and enjoyable. We didn't get to go into the deli that day, as it was just before a holiday and they were exceptionally busy, but we got to sit on their patio and experience our first tasting---so good! I was a bit curious about the tea and oil shops, but those turned out to be two of our favorites! My husband is now drinking tea, thanks to what he learned and experienced that day (thanks, Abigail!). I learned so much in the oil shop about what is good, what I like---I would never have expected to learn so much there, or enjoy it so much! I was really impressed. The spice shop was quite interesting, even though I am not the cook in the family. The chocolate shop was every bit as wonderful as you would imagine, and Dave (I believe that's correct--the owner) was gracious and answered all questions patiently. It's nice to see family owned businesses. I enjoyed the pizza at the end, as well! Wear comfortable walking shoes, take your camera and enjoy! All in all, I would recommend this tour very highly!

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!
Thu, Sep 17  11:30 AM BettyWalters Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I so enjoyed the Bucktown/Wicker Park food tour. All the restaurants were fantastic but I particularly liked the chocolate drink and marshmallow and the instant ice cream. The falafel was marvelous as well. Kent was great in his knowledge of the good restaurants in the area as well as his history of Chicago and Bucktown/Wicker Park. His personality fits his job and he does it well. My sister and I will highly recommend this tour and Kent to anyone visiting Chicago which will probably include us back again!!! Betty Walters

Well worth it!
Thu, Sep 17  11:00 AM michellekru Female 50-59 International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Of all the tours that my gal pals & I did in Chicago, this was voted as our favourite. Our tour leader Jen was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and clearly loves her city. We had alot of fun sampling food, and all was good. We learned so much about teas, oils, chocolate making, Chicago pizza and as well, the history of Chicago, esp. the north side. It was well worth the time, and slightly sore feet! You will NOT be disappointed with this tour - guaranteed. Michelle from Ontario

Fantastic Tour! Not to be Missed!
Thu, Sep 17  11:00 AM chani72 Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
This tour far exceded my expectations. The guide was fantastic and the food was delicious. There was a lot of variety in the types of stops on the tour. The neighborhoods that we walked through were beautiful and the guide was very knowledgable about them. I highly recomend this tour and will definately go on another tour by this company the next time I am in Chicago. I also wanted to mention that I went on the tour by myself b/c my husband was in Chicago on business and I still had a fantastic time. Do not miss this tour!

The website's description of the tour as "food tasting" and "enough for lunch" was not quite truthful. We expected sample size portions of foods and were taken aback at the size of the portions that were given at each site. It was more than enough for lunch and some of us had to do a "take out" at one of the locations because we were so full. Our guide, Kent, explained why each site was chosen for the tasting as well as the history of Bucktown and Wickert Park. Discount coupons and a map of the visited sites were provided so that we could go back at another time to enjoy the food, which we did. We went back to George's and got a "double dog" and to Sultan's to get their pita sandwiches. We highly recommend this tour to those who want to learn about and enjoy the local fare and history of an area of Chicago that most "tourists" don't experience.
