| We really enjoyed this tour through Central Village. The food stops were well selected and there was a good balance between eating, listening and walking. Our guide showed us places to which we always would like to return. The food was excellent. We especially liked the Cuban restaurant and the place where we got smoked mozzarella (delicious!). We also got to know some nice places to go out in the evening. Next time we will try another one! Thanks, Ute and Christine |

| We were a group of 11 people who came to NY to celebrate a friend's 40th birthday. We wanted to do something a little different to accomodate a lot of different ages. We did the central village/soho tour. We learned a ton about the area. Our tour guide, Susan, really filled us in on a lot of the history of the area. Overall, we liked almost all the food. The spaghetti bolognese at Monte's was fabulous. We thought the dishes served at Cuba were fantastic!! The chocolate pear tart, homemade mozzerella, and homemade pepperoni were spectacular. There were mixed feelings about the potato wrap from Indian Bread. Some thought it was a little too spicy. However, we were lucky enough to be there when some fresh bread came out of the oven and that was superb!!! The only food that none of us liked was the "helluva" (I know I spelled that wrong!). It was sesame seeds with honey which formed a small piece of "candy." Honestly, not one of us liked it.
Overall, the tour gave us a great day and we learned a ton. There was A LOT of food offered and none of us were hungry for dinner. Word to the wise, don't eat a lot before you go. You really get a nice amount of food on the tour. |

| For the last 3 years I have tried these tours, personally I mostly liked Greenwich (for outdoor) and then secondly Chelsea market (mostly indoor). This tour was ok but compared to the two others I was a bit disapointed, there was enough food but to much of the same category and too much to eat the same place. Food was ok but not as exciting as the two others in my personal opionion, maybe it's better to try this first and then the others afterwards. Kind Regards from Eriksen, Cph. |

| Our Tour guide made the tour, he was so knowledgeable and gave so much history of the area, buildings and people who lived there. I think I would have liked more tastings as I have had on other tours with you.
But it was a wonderful experience and I would want the same guide again |

| This was my second tour. My first was the meat packing district, which I loved. So I talked a friend into trying the Soho tour with me. Again it was great and now we are looking forward to doing another in the future. Not only was the food great but the guides knowledge of the neighborhoods history was exceptional. |
