Great Tour
Mon, Aug 10  12:00 PM ecarrykc Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
My friend and I recently went on the Food and Cultural Tour of Greenwich Village. It was a great tour. The food sampled was delicious and interesting. There were six restaurants sampled. We could not eat that last cannoli. Our tour guide, Saphra, was very funny and knowledgeable and put everyone at ease. We both have been to NY many times and still learned so much. We highly recommend this tour.

Not to be missed!!

This food tour of the Village provided area familiarization from so many points of view! We learned about the history of the Village, its architecture, current rent and sale prices, its unique place in avant garde poetry, music, dance, and its cultural importance as demonstrated so deliciously in the foods we sampled (and purchased after the tour!) Cindy, our guide, was vivacious, courteous, and tres knowledgeable: an absolute treasure, full of fun. We plan to do the other tours soon, and I will certainly be giving tour gift certificates to friends and family for special occasions!

I totally enjoyed the culinary tour. The food samplings were wonderful and the historical facts were interesting. Barri, our guide, was knowledgeable and entertaining. I would recommend this tour to my friends.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Greenwich Village under the very helpful guidance of Barre. The foods selected were great and copious. Barre obviously knows the area very well and her enthusiasm was contagious. I would definitely do more tours like this.

We loved our Greenwich Village food tour and our tour guide, Sephrah made it extra special. She really knew her stuff and told us interesting historical facts also. Loved the tastings and just an all round highly recommended activity.

AWESOME!!
Sun, Aug 9  11:30 AM jbecker1003 Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
This tour was one of the greatest events my group decided to do on our girls' weekend trip to the city! It was different, culturally awesome to learn about the very last area of NYC to undergo its transformation. The history of the area and what it is becoming is unbelievable. The food made available was amazing to taste! If you are a fan of excellent food by some of the very best bakers and cooks in NYC then this is the tour for you! It is well worth the money to take this tour. This is an area most probably woudln't think twice about visiting. You will be extremely disappointed for not choosing this tour soon - before the transformation of this area is complete. Go - eat, drink, soak up the culture, and enjoy the old and new of the area!!

EXCELLENT/PHENOMENAL!!!
Sun, Aug 9  11:30 AM mmhudgins17 Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The tour guide was great, really enjoyed her. This was my 3rd Foods of NY walking tour and the other 2 the food was great, the history was phenomenal and the guide was helpful/informative!!! I was concerned with this one during the start because the tour guide took longer than normal giving us an overview on the history instead of doing a summary, starting the tour and proceeding with the history info. during the tour. We were all on a food tour and we were anxious to start tasting and she continued going on and on about the history and I thought it was going to be a long day. Well, the food tour started, the food was great, her history lesson turned out to be PHENOMENEAL and she warmed up, and all the tour went on it was a good fit with her being on the tour, and her incorporating the history with the food, the building,etc. NOw, looking back, I appreciate the info. very much, I guess because I was comparing to the former 2 tours, this was very different in that this buildning/neighborhood had/has a lot of history about it and there was a lot of history to share!!! So , I shouldn't have gotten so anxious in the beginning, should have just enjoyed it from the start, relaxed and it would have flowed as it should. THE TOUR WAS GREAT, THE HISTORY COMPONENT WAS AMAZING, AND THE TOUR GUIDE WAS PHENOMENAL. I actually want to do it again with my husband to absorb any info. I didn't catch on this first go round. I am telling all that go to NY to do these food tours, and specifically this one!

It was great!

Our tour guide was enthusiastic and full of stories and information about the things we were seeing. The tastings were wonderful and at the end of the tour I did not need another thing to eat. It is like eating a multi-course meal. I would highly recommned the tour. This is a culture lesson that is very educational!

Good TIme

We had a great time on this tour. Our guide was knowledgeable and provided information on the area. Our group was diversified and she handled that well. My only compliant was that she allowed a person to "tag" along on the tour. This person was not supposed to be given samples of the food. However, the guide made exceptions at the first three stops. Until I complained that this was not fair to those of us who had paid the full price. The guide then asked this person to "stop out" of the rest of the tour. After that I was satisfied with the rest of the tour.

My husband and I recently took the Chelsea Market tour. The tour guide was a true New Yorker who intelligently and humorously led the group through the market and neighborhood. The food tastings were delicious!

Taste of NY Food Plus a Sampling of NY History
Sun, Aug 9  11:00 AM patcarthel Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Thank you for one of the highlights of our entire NY trip. Four years ago we did the Greenwich tour and knew that we would enjoy this one also. Your company does a fabulous job of organizing, having enthusiastic guides, and presenting interesting facts. Next time we come we will do another tour. For your information we also did another walking tour with another company and it would not hold a candle to yours-difference as" daylight and dark." Thanks again for the BEST that New York has to offer. Pat

I wasn't quite sure what to expect when signing up for this event, but I was pleasantly surprised. I am a sushi-lover but was interested in trying new Japanese food. The food was great and it was interesting to learn about Japanese food. Although the event was 2.5 hours, the time flew by while we were there. I hope that Foods of NY will add other events like this one to their menu.

My girlfriends and I had a great time. The day was perfect, the guide was funny, informative and very easy going. It was a wonderful introduction to Greenwich Village. I will definitely try another tasting tour and visit the friendly merchants in Greenwich Village.
