| This tour was by far the most interesting part of my trip to New York. Everything about it was a foodie and cultural enthuasists dream. Our tour guide was funny, entertaining, knowledgeable, and down to earth. I immediately recommended this tour to a local New Yorker and fello foodie who booked a tour for the next day. My next trip to NY will be sure to include a food tour. |

| Types of food needs to be broken out more - too much breads and pasteries.
Far too much talking and not enough eating.
Did not enjoy the school master type tour leader.
Overall, would not recommend to other locals. Maybe for out of towners only. |

| The Chelsea Market tour was fun and educational as well as filling us with food and drink. I never had farm fresh milk. The meatpackers tour was just as informative, the history as well as the future of the district was very interesting. |

I Recommend this tour!

| Our guide, Curt, was a very energetic, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable young man who provided an entertaining and informative tour. The three hours sped by in his company.
The food and sites were excellent. My only criticism of the food is that there was too much concentration on sweets. We started with a chocolate twist, followed by a mocha drink and chocolate milk, and ended up with double-baked chocolate croissants! I preferred the balance of foods in the Greenwich tour. |

| The tour guide provided a lot of historical information and current developments in the Chelsea area and the market in which we spent most of the tour. The food that we tried was so delicious and the guide even pointed out food bargains, restaurants, and shops. |

| This was our second tour with Foods of New York (we also did the Greenwich tour last year) and we loved it! The food is fantastic the insight and information abut the neighborhood was facinating and the guide was great. We look forward to a new trip being added to the mix - we will definately be back to take it if it happens! |

| It was a very informative, and very fun tour. The food choices were delicious, and we learned much history that we would not have had insight on, otherwise. Highly recommended! |
