| My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary and we thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Chelsea Market and Meatpacking district. Our guide was very knowledgeable and we just had so much fun. We got to know a part of the city we've never been to before and we look forward to trying other tours in the future. |

| The tour was great! Our guide Kurt was one of the best guides I have ever been with. His personality and knowledge were second to none. The food is great and the market is a must!! I was hoping to see more of the meat paking side of things, however; there is none of that in the tour as you just tour the district and not an actually meat paking plant. This is the only reason why I give it 4 stars and not 5. |

| I had participated in this tour previously with friends and wanted my husband to experience it. We enjoyed it, but not quite as much as the Greenwich Village tour. I think Chelsea Market is an easy place to go and navigate without scheduling an organized tour, but if I was going to recommend one to others, it would definitely be with Foods of NY.
Also, after the Greenwich tour, we felt like we had a "full meal" whereas, we did not feel that way after Chelsea Market. We understand that the food is only intended to be a sampling, but we enjoyed feeling like we had lunch during the Greenwich tour and had no desire to eat afterward. |

| A friend mentioned this tour to me before I left Australia so I looked into it when I got to New york. As the day was a bit rainy it seemed an excellent way to spend the day. Our guide was professional and friendly and the tour was fabulous. All the providors we visited had lovely produce and the tastings were a great bonus.
I have already recommended the tour to another friend and would not hesitate to encourage others to take the tour.
A fantastic way to spend a day in New York |

| My friend and I had been on a food tour of Chicago, and enjoyed it so much, we found this tour online. We live in Toronto, and are always up to combining 2 of our favourite things - food and learning about cities. This tour was awesome. Ed was very knowledgeable and professional, and made us feel really comfortable from the beginning. The food was excellent, and so were the quantities. I would have loved a bit more gelato though, and we were disappointed that we didn't visit the Fat Witch brownie place, but we went back there and bought one on our own, among other things from the amazing stores in the market afterwards. I agree with other reviews, the visit to the washrooms in Morimoto's was definitely a highlight - I'll let you find out why - and we were honoured with a non-tour moment in Del Posto that we really thank Ed very much for - it made our trip very special! We are both big Iron Chef America fans, so it was awesome to see the 2 restaurants on the tour. Great job guys!!! We would definitely do another Manhattan food tour through the same company in a heartbeat. |
