| Our tour guide really knew his history and was very easy to talk and ask questions to. I can't remember his name, but he was a student, and did a good job explaining why things are the way they are in N.O. The food was great. I definitely recommend this tour. |

| Culinary history tour is an inadequate description. The guide entertained us with information about local architecture, history, politics and especially food! I can’t wait to get back to NOLA to try some of the restaurants we explored on the tour. |

| Kelly did a great job of showing our group highlights of New Orleans Culinary History. We were recieved with open arms at each business we visited. Not only was this a culinary tour, but also a historical and architechtural tour ! As a result of this tour,
my husband and I dined and enjoyed meals at three restaurants we would not have otherwise visited. I would definately suggest the tour to others--take it early in your stay so you can go back to your favourites! |

| My first restaurant tour was March 2007 and enjoyed it a lot, but I didn't think the restaurants were quite ready after Katrina. I am so glad I gave it another try. There were three couples in our group and everyone had a delightful time. Who knows, the third time may be in my future! Thanks Kelly, hope to see you again. Judy Adams |

| I thought Kelly gave us a very good tour. However, it did seem to lack some coordination. We arrived at places that did not seem to expect us - so we did not get to see much behind the scenes or get a presentation from the owners/chefs of these places. It would have been helpful if she used her cell phone to call ahead so that these restaurants could be prepared or if they were busy she could adjust the tour accordingly. In some places we got a taste of whatever food was on hand rather than their specialty. Overall, the food was very good at all the places we stopped. For newcomers to New Orleans we would diffinitely recommend this tour for getting a taste of the French Quarter. She also may need to change the times of the tour since many of the better restaurants were closed during the day. |

| We got to go behind the scenes to see areas and rooms we'd not get to see as restaurant patrons only. Our guide gave us lots of interesting info. The tour included a wide range of restaurants. |

| The guide was very knowledgable about the history of New Orleans and how the different cuisines came to be over time. We enjoyed the different locations we walked to and toured and the food we sampled was excellent. |

| This tour provided a good backround of French Quarter restaurants and culinary history and general history. The food samples from the restaurants were great. We were able to use this experience to visit several places during our trip. |
