| I love eating sushi but always wondered about its history and how to correctly eat it. This course was not only delicious, but taught me a wealth of knowledge about the true, pure origins and preparation of sushi. I wouldn't call myself a sushi "snob" as a result of this session, but I would say that I definitely now know a lot more about quality sushi than my peers!! |

| I was a little skeptical about paying so much for a food tour--especially since I had never been on one and wasn't sure what to expect. However, my date and I had a wonderful time and the tour exceeded both our expectations.
The food was excellent and our guide Rashim was extremely knowledgeable about the food and culture. Also, the waitresses at the restaurant were very prompt and attentive in keeping up with the tour. I took a new liking to some foods that I had been wary about before, and it has changed the way I view Japanese cuisine. The one order of alcohol (1 beer and 2 carafes) was plenty for the two of us to taste and share. I don't think we could have drank more! But I also found that some people who wanted to order more drinks could, and that it was just added to their tab so they could pay at the end of the tour.
I highly recommend this tour to others and look forward to trying out some of the others FoodTours has to offer! |

| The menu was extensive. The food was excellent and beautifully presented.
The food/beverage pairings were thoughtful and delicious. We appreciated learning about the symbolism of the meal. Raheem, our food guide was knowledgeable but not intrusive. The unhurried pace of the meal added to our enjoyment. We will return to the featured restaurant on our own and we plan to take another tour.
Great for locals and out of towners.
Highly recommended. |

| Raheem was very knowledgeable and completely charming. We didn't LOVE everything we ate, but it was an awesome experience and we were very full afterwards. I am happy I learned so much about sushi and Japanese culture. I have done almost all the tours Foods of New York offers except the Chinatown one that I want to do with Raheem when I'm in NY on a Wednesday. |
