| Not only were we able to sample some of the best foods in the area, we learned a great deal of history about the locations we stopped at to observe, those were we stopped to taste, and even those that we passed by! |

| The three-hour tour flew by. I have been to Greenwich Village dozens of times from being a teenager on and never enjoyed it so much. The food tastings were all delicious and educational (and filling too). OUr guide was fantastic. He took care of us wonderfully as we traveled many blocks and streets. He xplained every cuisine, stop and other interesting sites wonderfully. |

| My sister in law, daughter 11 years old, and myself thoroughly enjoyed the food, the culture and history of SOHO and Greenwich. I would definately do another food tour again when visiting NY. I am a very picky eater and was pleasently surprised at the very delicious variety of ethnic food that I would probably never try. I am craving the Indian roll up, YUMMY Yummy! |

| We have now taken three Foods of New York Food Tours, the most recent being the
Central Village/SOHO Food and Culture Tour. All have been outstanding, but this
may have been the best of the three. The food samples were very good and ample,
and the commentary from our guide (Berrie) was excellent. Highly recommended. |

Entertaining and delicious

| We had high expectations after reading all the raving reviews and recommendations from our friends who had already experienced this tour. The tastings were delicious, and we can't wait to go back to eat there again. The tour guide was quite knowledgeable and informative, however we felt she was not very personable. |

Going to NY? Don't miss this tour!

| The tour was not only culinary and cultural, but architecturally enlightening as well. Our guide (Rahim) was knowledgeable, affable, and entertaining. The tastings were well chosen and delicious--things we may not have ever had a chance, or an inclination, to try. The pace was comfortable but not dawdling, and the entire experience, especially the small group, was a pleasure. We went back to the Village a couple of nights later and ate at one of the featured restaurants--what a treat! My wife and I (60-ish) and our daughter (29) thoroughly enjoyed the tour and highly recommend it to anyone and everyone. For us, it's a "don't miss" on a trip to New York. |

| I took the tour with my husband and 17 yr old daughter. It was a great opportunity to learn about an area of NY that I probably would not have visited in depth. Our guide, Raheem, was full of great information - history, culture and especially food. He has a passion about the area and food that came across in our tour. We had a small group of 9. The food was incredible. We visited places that we would never have sampled on our own and learned a lot about different ethnic foods. I highly recommend this tour. It was one of the highlights of our four day birthday trip for my daughter. Can't wait to come back and try one of the other tours.
I recommend taking notes. You are provided with a list of all the restaurants you visit and many that you don't. I would never remember all the details. Wear comfortable shoes...three hours is a little long but it would not keep me from doing it again. We definitely will visit these places again and again...Great job!!! |

| Our leader was very knowledgeable and provided more information than I expected. The food was all very good, and we were full at the end of the tour. A friend recommended this tour to us, and it was one of the things we liked best about our trip to New York. We will recommend to others. |
