Sample tasty treats from ethnic, old-school eateries in two distinct areas - one colorful and exciting, the other surprisingly quaint.

This was the first tour we've taken with this company, and we were absolutely delighted. Barri was a knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide. The 3 hours consisted of a cultural tour interspersed with tastings - some "on the street" and others 20-30 minutes sitting down inside the restaurant. The pace was perfect. We had approximately 15 in our group - it was a perfect size and by the end of the tour we had met everyone. Overall it was a great experience. I would highly recommend the tour to individuals, couples, and families with pre-teens on up in age. |

Four of us joined ten other people for this tour and it was a truly enjoyable experience. The weather was intermittent light rain but it didn't matter as we walked, listened to some great history of the area and sampled all different kinds of tasty, well-prepared foods. We are already planning on doing the tour again on our next trip. |

This is the second food tour I've been on with Food Tours of NY. This one was even better than the first one. Our guide, Rasheem(sp?), was wonderful. He was knowledgeable about the history of the neighborhoods we walked through, and of the food that was served on the tour. In spite of the cold, slightly windy day, my family had a great time and we left so full. The food was great, from the Indian kati roll to the walnut chocolate tart. I would recommend this tour to anyone and haven't stopped talking about since we took it. I'm already looking for the next food tour to take the next time I'm in NYC. |

We knew from the first bite of food at the Aamchi Pao that we were going to have a good time for a few hours. Our guide was upbeat and took the damper off the cold overcast day at noon on Friday Oct 16th. She was very informative about the history of the area and ssome of the buildings and sites. The food was delicious and a treat at each stop. We were not even hungry for supper before going to the theatre that evening. This is a fun thing to do in NYC. |
