Chelsea Market/Meatpacking Dist Food Tasting Tour

Darryl was very entertaining and we loved all of the food shops he introduced us to.

Opportunity to learn much about Chelsea Market with knowledgeable, witty and personable tour guide. Food samples were deliciously fabulous! Only regret was that our family took the tour at the end of our New York visit. Next time around, we plan on spending more time down in the market.

This is the third Foods of NY tour I've taken and it did NOT disappoint!! I LOVED this tour. The guide was fantastic and was so knowledgeable! Cindy was awesome- so personable and gave a fantastic tour. You cannot beat this tour if you live in NYC or if you are visiting!! This is the best thing I've done while visiting the city!! I've also done the Greenwich Village tour which was equally fabulous. These tours are the best in the area!!

Curt, our tour guide, was terrific. the Chelsea market history, content and tour were interesting, delicious and informative. we will do the other food tours when we return to NYC. Curt's comedic presence, his ability to remember everyones name, place of origin, etc made us feel welcomed and appreciated.

Our guide Kurt was beyond awesome. Very interesting and entertaining - neverf a dull moment and very knowledgeable both in history of area and knowledge of food. Would recommend to anyone that is a foodie for sure.

Diana was our tour guide, and she did an outstanding job. I went with my mom, and we had a blast. The guide was so knowledgeable about the area, the history, and was so funny. The food was also excellent! My favorite was the lobster bisque, and I was definitely stuffed after the tour!

Loved it! Our tour guide was excellent, the market was awesome and the food delicious!

I love to cook and found this tour was right up my alley... Literally and alley full of food stores, bakeries, kitchen supplies, minerals, herbs, domestic, imported. Prices are NOT unreasonable. You can build shopping relationships that will continue long after you part. The history is so cool, and this corner or the island has so much to offer. It is a great tour in the winter b/c most of it is indoors (I went during the Christmas blizzard 2010) and it was GREAT FUN. Thanks for all the memories, and great ideas we brought home with us.

Our group of six had two who were doing the food tour for the second time. We all found the tour to be an excellent combination of food tasting and architectual/urban history. The walk on th Highline, even though freezing, was well worth seeing the views of the Hudson and this urban destination. The final tasting Macelleria of the oxtail ragu was the highlight of the tour. Our guide, Diana,was interesting, funny and knowledgable.

I, being a foodie, was not impressed with the food side of it. It seem a little ordinary and I was hoping for a little more. When it is advertised as a food walking tour, I want a little more than a blueberry mini muffin and a cheese and cracker from a basket store. Our guide was awesome.
