| This tour was a real highlight of my trip to NY and resulted in me making some new suggestions to locals! I also really liked the fact that the tour guide made such great recommendations outside of the places included in the tour. Thanks! |

| I'v told all my friends, local and visitors, to take this tour. It was so informative, fun and delicious. It's great for both those new to the area and those of us who have had many a meal there.The tour guide was very enthusiastic about his job, loved what he was doing, gave great descriptions of how the food was made, told history of the neighborhood, all with a nice leasurly pace. We had the best scallion pancakes I've ever had. We plan to make return visits to the restaurants, their dim sum and duck were delicious. The restaurants were attractive, clean and had attentive service.You are not on your feet for 3 hours, you get to sit at 2 different restaurants and enjoy their cuisine.
It's a great way to get to know a part of New York City.
We also went on another one of the walking/eating tours and liked it so much we took this one too. Don't miss it. |

| Rabhim, I'm sure I got the name wrong....but it did start with an "R." Thank you for the informative tour of Chinatown. We stayed in Chinatown for about two to three hours longer, going back to the places you introduced us to. We enjoyed our stay in NYC and your tour was a highlight of our trip. We will definitely try the other tours on our next trip to NYC. Mahalo and Aloha! |

| OUR GUIDE WAS FABULOUS, (HIS NAME ESCAPES ME AT THE MOMENT BUT HE WAS PROFESSIONAL IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD, FUN TO BE WITH, TOTALLY INFORMED AND KNOWLEGEABLY AND PERSONABLE TO THE MAX!)THE FOOD VARIABLE AS WELL AS HOW WE CONSUMED SAME, EITHER ON THE STREET OR IN A WELL PLANNED SUCCESSION OF DELIGHTS, WAS PERFECT AND INVENTIVE TO SOMEONE WHO LIVES IN NEW YORK AND THOUGHT OF CHINATOWN AS BEING BOTH INTIMIDATING AND OVERWHELMINGLY CONFUSING ALL THESE YEARS. . I NOW FEEL VERY INFORMED AND I HAVE A MUCH BETTER HANDLE ON WHAT THE AREA HAS TO OFFER IN BOTH A CULTURAL AS WELL AS EPICUREAN EXPERIENCE. I CAN ONLY SING PRAISES TO OUR GUIDE FOR ENLIGHTENING ME, HE LET ME ROLL WITH THE 'FOODIE' KNOWLEDGE I'VE ACQUIRED OVER THE YEARS AND WAS NOT CONDESENDING OR OFFENDED BY MY INPUT. HE WAS A TRULY GREAT GUIDE AND AM LOOKING FORWARD TO FRIENDS AND MYSELF GOING ON ANOTHER TOUR AND/OR THE SUSHI DINNER WITH HIM. ALL IN ALL, IT WAS A SUPURB EXPERIENCE THAT I WOULD DO AGAIN IN OTHER VENUES. I APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO VOICE MY OPINION AND LOOK FORWARD TO BEING A CUSTOMER FOR A LONG TIME TO COME. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TYPE OF TOURING NOT JUST TO FOODIES BUT FOR THOSE FROM OUT OF TOWN WHO WISH TO LEARN ABOUT SPECIFIC AREAS UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL. THIS IS FAR FROM SITTING ON A DOUBLE DECKER TOUR BUS, THIS IS THE REAL DEAL WITH SOME TASTY PLATES AS A TREAT. THANKS AGAIN!! JUDY WILLNER |

| This tour was a little different than the others offered by this tour group (I have done all of them) in that some of the tastings are done in a sit down atmosphere instead of the usual eat and go on the street. But that was necessary because the foods tasted (dumplings and Peking duck) were not well suited to eating with your hands. Other tastings were done on the street. It was a great tour with a great tour guide. Well worth the money and time. I learned a lot and had a great meal. |

| We had a fantastic time on the Chinatown tour! I really enjoyed the 2 sit-down "snacks" we had, and the rest of the "traveling snacks" were great too!!! I was surprised at how much I learned about the area...definitely more than I expected! Our tour guide, Raheem, was SO kind, VERY knowledgeable of the area and he made you feel very relaxed! I highly recommend this tour for another look at NY. I've been here many times and I love discovering new areas I've never seen and this definitely gave you a great overview! |
