Great tour...but don't drink the oil! :)
Sat, Oct 13, 07   11:30 AM kjsmith555 Female 20-29 Local Group of Friends
We went to an oil and vinegar shop in Old Town which was kind of weird. We were to drink the oil and vinegar just as it was. Trying the vinegar was ok but drinking olive oil was a bit much. It was also odd that at the Spice House, we only tried cinnamon...it would have been nice to try recipes with the spices used in them. Overall, the tour was great and informative. My favorite was ethel's chocolates! :)

Don't go to this tour hungry...
Sat, Oct 13, 07   11:30 AM kolski Female 20-29 Local Group of Friends
I was a little disappointed by this tour. They had said not to eat before going. But I was starving throughout most of the tour. Our "tastings" included eating cinnamon out of our hand (?) and drinking oil (yes, I said oil) out of a small paper cup??? This was hardly filling ... a little bread maybe please. The tour guide shared some interesting information about Chicago, but I was expecting more food. You definitely will want to eat before this tour. If you are looking for an interesting cultural tour of Chicago, you will get it, but if you are looking to try some of Chicago's best food, don't count on getting it on this tour. Not really sure if it was worth the money, but at least we got to do something different.

Excellent tour of out-of-the-way establishments
Sat, Oct 13, 07   11:00 AM MacKillop Female 40-49 Local Family Without Children
As a couple new to the Chicago area, we went on the tour to get a better sense of some of the more out of the way neighborhoods and restaurants. Our tour guide Tad was extremely knowledgeable and interesting with historical and fun details. We loved the choice of establishments that we visited and even returned to them to make purchases after the tour was over. We've already recommended the tour to friends who enthusiastically want to take the tour themselves. In fact, we're going downtown on Sat. with a couple who want to visit the oil and spice shops we visited. Several people were disappointed they hadn't heard of the tour before, so get the word out! It's a hit!

Perfect combination of walking, talking & tasting
Fri, Oct 12, 07   11:00 AM marydbrooks Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
A real opportunity to visit parts of the city I had never been to. I enjoyed the combination of the walk, info. about the neighborhoods and a nice variety of shops and restruants to do our tasting. I would recommend the tour to my friends.

Worth the trip
Tue, Oct 9, 07   11:00 AM Flash1 Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
My husband and I chose to spend a couple extra days in Chicago while I attended a conference. Wanting something to do that we both enjoy, we opted to try and find something for foodies. My husband found the walking tour online and we signed up. We were both very pleased with the tour and the stops. My husband has a walking disability and did find the pace a little fast however still enjoyed the tour.

This tour was delicious and informative!
Mon, Oct 8, 07   1:30 PM CBayer06 Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
My friend and I really enjoyed the Food Tasting and Walking Tour. Our guide, Shane, was engaging, knowledgable, and a lot of fun. I'd recommend this tour to anyone who wants to get an "off the beaten" path tour of Chicago. My only regret is that we couldn't do the tour on our first day there to take advantage of all the restaurant recommendations!

Fun walk with interesting stops, good for foodies
Mon, Oct 8, 07   1:30 PM JRemiker Female 40-49 Local Family With Children
We had a great time....went with our two young (7 & 9 yrs old) sons and visiting relatives. We enjoyed all the stops (especially the Spice House & Oil Town), the boys loved all the chocolate, especially the Fudge Pot. Our tour guide (Shawn) did a good job of pointing out the sites and educating us on cinnamon and tea. Would have to say if we were all out of towners that we would be disappointed that not more "Chicago" style items on tour---really should include Chicago-style hot dog and deep dish (stuffed) pizza.

Learn Chicago and food
Mon, Oct 8, 07   1:30 PM ew0612 Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
I had a fantastic experience. I was in Chicago for six days and my only regret was not taking the tour on the first day so I could experience some of the Great places to eat. The tour was not only informative about Chicago, but also about the food and the history of it. Of all the things I did, this was my favorite.

I really liked the Taste and Walk. It took me to areas that I would have never seen before. The guide was very informative and had great people skills, she made the walk very enjoyable. I will definately tell people to do this Taste and Walk.

Unique and enjoyable experience
Sat, Oct 6, 07   11:00 AM tluter Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
My daughter and both I enjoy cooking (and eating) and we were looking for something different to do while in Chicago for the weekend. This tour fit the bill perfectly. Our tour guide, Nicki, was enthusiastic, friendly and very knowledgable. We enjoyed the variety of different shops and restaurants and seeing neighborhoods that we hadn't seen on previous trips to Chicago. Nicki kept the tour moving at a nice pace, but we never felt like we were rushed through any of the stops. We went back to several of the shops, after the tour, to purchase the items we had sampled and are looking forward to trying them out at home. A friend of mine was also on the tour with us and the 3 of us couldn't stop talking about how much we enjoyed the day. I would highly recommend this tour.

Excellent Tour

The tour was everything I had hoped it would be, our guide was very friendly and knowledgable. Each stop was great with more than enough samples of food. It was very interesting hearing of the different places and also the architecture and different sites along the way. I would highly recommend this tour.

Enthusiastic leader in Tad...he was great and fun.
Fri, Oct 5, 07   11:30 AM Sandra48 Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We did enjoy the tour on a lovely day. One shop owner was somewhat brusque with me when I purchased some small items, the Spice Shop in fact. Otherwise, the rest of the shops were fun and the food excellant. Really a fun walk, one I would recommend.
