Taking a tour can sometimes be a disaster -- but not in this case! I was visiting NYC with a friend who is a "local" and had set this tour up based on the recommendation of another friend who took it earlier this year. What an incredible experience! I not only got to eat good food, but learned so much about the history of a colorful part of New York. Kurt was a wealth of information, and he truly put his heart and soul into making sure that we had a great time. When I come back to New York I'm definitely going to sign myself up & anyone else that's with me for another tour of a different part of the City! |

An absolute treat!!! We really enjoyed our tour on Saturday, August 11 @ 12 noon. Our tour guide Bob is well educated on the history of the Chelsea Market and Meatpacking DIstrict. It would have been nice to meet a few of the owners of the various establishments we toured and/or meet someone at the management status. That would have been a nice added touch. I personally would have liked to have spent a little more time in a few key stops., i.e. Buon Italia. Overall we give the tour two thumbs up!!! We are making plans for our next trip to include one of the other culinary walking tours. THANK YOU!!! |

We have done Foods of New York tours in the past. They are ALL great. This tour, however, was the BEST ever. Kurt, our guide, was funny, knowledgeable and easy going. This was part of my mother's 70th birthday present - she said it was the "time of her life."
Thanks!!

The tour guide was animated, informed, and wonderfully entertaining. There was SO SO much food and lots of knowledge to eat up. One of the best tours I have been on in NYC and I have done at least 4. My daughter (now 20) and I go ever summer to NYC for a long weekend and this was certainly a great one- we agree! We highly recommend it. It is actually walking and you will be on your feet mostly at stops so consider that before signing up. And bring your appetite. |

Great--So much fun |

The tour guide was both informative and entertaining. He provided great reviews of the shops and resteaurants. The tastings were outstanding and made you wanting to go back for more(which we did).
This is a must tour for anyone who has not visited the Chelsa Market and the Meat-Packing district. |

Great food and interesting information about the place. The only recommendation I would make is to allow for some selection of choices by the audience. Ice cream instead of milk would have been a nice choice for those that don't drink milk. But overall great time. |
