| Me and a friend (from England) booked tickets to this event after going on the Greenwich tour last year and completely enjoying that one. And to be honest, we weren't disappointed with this tour. The tour guide (Remon?) had a lot of local knowledge and gave a nice insight into the etiquette and history of China and their food. This tour was particularly good, as there was a lot of places to sit and enjoy the food. The best part, for us, was watching the chef slice the peking duck, and to top it off, the duck was absolutely lovely.
There was nothing that we didn't like on the tour. The food was well thought out and presented at the right times in the tour.
The guide was clear; concise and knowledgable, and was keen to share his knowledge.
I would give this event 5 stars out of 5 and really would recommend the tour to anyone who wants to learn more about an area and learn more about the food. |

| Had a great time in Chinatown with the group.
Raheem was a great guide for a first time visitor or a local like myself.
I as well as the others on the tour especially loved his passion for food details as well as some history. The organizers of these tours need to take my advise and let Raheem put together some more exotic ethnic tours for local and visiting foodies.This is the fourth foods of New York tour I have been on and have enjoyed them all.
See ya on the next tour,
Allan

| This was the best walking tour I've done and much better than Big Onion company.
The guide Raheem was superb and had a wonderful light delivery style.
We got just the right amount of information, trivia and humour. Quality of food was brilliant and we felt inspired by whole experience.
Would most certainly come on another tour.
Thank you. |

| Great introduction to Chinatown and especially its restaurants. Raheem was knowledgeable and personable. He took us though places we had been before, but told us things we didn't know. We had a great time, just pace yourself. There is plenty of food. We weren't hungry until about ten o'clock at night. We intend to sign up for another Foods of New York tour.

| Raheem is a terrific guide...and I'm desperately jealous that we don't have a dim sum place as good as Dim Sum Go Go near us. Great tour, good walk, a lot of tasty food! |

| Each time we take one of your tours, this was our third, we think "How can another, be as good?" And, each time we are rewarded with another wonderful experience. Our excellent and jovial guide, Raheim (sp?), offered up historical tidbits on this neighborhood's long immigrant past, and on the Chinese-Americans who now call this area "home", as he navigated us through winding streets in search of Chinese delicacies. Raheim's enthusiasm for the area's excellent food was not misplaced. All the establishments we visited offered DELICIOUS fare. The dim sum, Peking duck, roast pork were outstanding! We are already making plans to head back for dinner....our palate was has been thoroughly enthralled! And, Foods of NY? Well done, we will be back for yet another tour soon! |

| I have been planning to take a foods of NY tour for some time now and I was not
disappointed with the Chinatown tour. Besides the wonderful food, the best thing
about this tour was our guide, Rasheem. He was so knowledgeable about Chinatown and actually other parts of the city and its food. It was surprising how much food we ate for the price of this ticket. WHAT A GREAT EXPERIENCE!! I am
anxious to take other foods of ny tours when I am in town again. Thanks. |
