| The best part of the tour was the guide, Darrell. He was great and provided a fun tour of the area, including many great tastings. |

| Darryl was a wonderful guide. The tour of Chelsea Market was terrific with great tastings and we enjoyed the tour of the neighborhood. Darryl really went the extra mile to make us feel comfortable and give us extra information. We definitely will be back to this area on our next trip to New York. It was a great day that we will remember for a long time. |

| The tour director (Kirk) was very knowledgable and answered all of our questions.
He even took other couple that missed the tour a week ago. My family and I enjoyed the tour very much. I highly recommend this particular tour to others.

| I very much enjoyed the food tour. The guide was very fun. The food was wonderful but certainly stop for breakfast before if an early tour. I really enjoyed visiting a brownstone home. I always wondered what they were like inside. |

| A bountiful variety of delicious foods, a charming guide (the very personable and appealing Kurt!) sharing countless fascinating, fun and funny facts (historical, cultural, architectural, gastronomic, culinary, etc, etc, etc......!), numerous intriguing locations....it all added up to some of the best hours we've spent in New York City or anywhere! A truly great way to get a feel (and a taste!) for a place -- HIGHLY recommended! You will enjoy! |

| My husband and I toured Chelsea Market last Saturday and had a great experience. The tour took place primarily on the first floor of Chelsea Market, and then we walked around a bit in the neighborhood (but all the tastings were in CM). Our guide Darryl shared fun and interesting facts, just the right amount to keep us entertained. We never felt rushed and truly got to enjoy this culinary experience. The tastings included: chocolate croissants, spreadable fruit on biscuits, various sea salts, chocolates, seafood bisques, whole grain bread, deli meat, olives, pepperoni, blueberry lemonade, cheese, chocolate milk and coffee flavored milk. I might be leaving something out. If you are a picky eater, this tour is not for you. Though the advertisement said most people don't need to eat after the tour, we were still hungry and grabbed a slice of pizza afterward. All in all, a great way to spend a half day in NYC. |

| My friend and I had planned to take the tour on Saturday, June 24, 2006. Unfortunately, she had a famiy emergency at home and we had to leave New York in the early morning hour to get back to New Jersey. We plan on coming to take the tour in the fall on our bi-annual visit. At that time, I will be more than happy to fill our a questionaire. |

| the tour was one of our highlights of the weekend. Kurt our tour guide was tremendous with his knowledge of the market and the area surrounding chelsea market. He was very enthusiastic in describing everything we ate. He was a pleasure to be with and you can tell he enjoys his job. Thank You, Jules Scaramuzzi |

| This was the most fun we had all weekend! Two families, one from the West Coast, with 5 kids between us.....Our guide was Kurt, and we loved him! Obviously he is a foodie, he loves NY, loves the whole renovation of the meatpacking district....he's a hoot. His stories and the delivery were fantastic, the food was dreamy, and the history of the whole place is too cool.
I had done the tour of the Village a few months ago and loved that as well, but this one was so much better....mainly because of our guide. I would (and will) reccomend this to friends! |
