| This was our second food tour and we loved it as much as the first. Our tour guide was great and had everything organized and ready for us. The food samples were plentyful and delicious. This tour is a great way to learn about the area and to see things you would not normally know about. We had one movie star sighting in the market to add to the excitement. Looking forward to doing all the different tours. | ||||||

| The tour was outstanding! It was a great way to spend the day! The tour guide was fantastic, very knowledgeable not only about the local landmarks, but also about food. The restaurants and local establishments that we visited were excellent. I would highly recommend this tour. | ||||||

| What a treat! Delicious food and interesting history of the area. Learned what "Off Broadway" really means, it's not what you think. Went on the tour with my best friend-we simply loved it! | ||||||

| The tour was such a wonderful way to see an area I had only visited 1x before. I love to eat and history is a very favorite thing to know about in each city I visit. Curt Upton was our awesome,wonderful guide and not only did he remember everyones name and gave each of us (12 in total) personal attention. His knowledge filled with detail of the area was amazing. I have visited NYC many,many times and will have to say this was one of the best things I have done there as far as group activity goes. I will spread the word and hope to do all of the Food/Tour that are offered in the city. Bravo! | ||||||

| My daughter (18) and I had a great time with Curt our guide and the other participants on our first sightseeing tour of this kind. Curt was exceptional and the food we tasted was simply delicious and believe me, we love good food and know the difference! It goes without saying that we went back the next day to get some more goodies and to have dinner at the recommended restaurant "Le Gigot". We took our friends from Long Island there and we all simply loved the place, the service and particularly the food. We certainly recommend the tour as well as this restaurant but make sure to make a reservation as they have limited space. On our next trip to New York we will definitely book another tour to broaden our culture! Thank you Curt for some wonderful moments and insights! | ||||||

| I love our tour guide and how he is chalk full of tidbits about not only Greenwich but NYC in general. The tour made me appreciate NY more and gave me better insight into how locals live. Oh yea, the food was splendid. | ||||||

GREAT BIRTHDAY PRESENT FOR A FOODIE!
|
|||||
| Sat, Jan 2 6:00 PM | Shanipowell | Female | 30-39 | Local | Couple on a Date | |
| I took my fiance on this particular tour as a birthday present because he is a major foodie, and I have to say that it was one of (if not the best) present he has ever received. We both loved the food and our host was excellent keeping the evening interesting, light hearted and fun. The food was excellent!! I incedentally blurted out after my second tasting "I am so Happy!" and in all honesty I am not a foodie or a fan of Japaneese food, however this tour showed me what I had been missing in really good Japanese food (the difference between real wasabi and the "fake stuff", which I will never eat again, what really good sake tastes like) and taught me so much about "real Japanese food. I did purchase the additional beer and sake, and have to say although you will enjoy the tasting if you do not add this, your tasting is taken to another level with the additional drinks. My reccomendation would be if you can, get the drinks, but if not still take the tour you will enjoy as well. I am looking forwrad to taking a few of the other tours... once it get a little warmer, another reason I opted for this tour as it is the only sit down in one venue tour offered, but many of the other guests who have done the "walking tours" also raved about those. Overall, it was money well spent and I would highly recommend to anyone. | ||||||

disappointed

| We eat sushi from time to time; but we always order the same things (Philly roll, California roll...). Our hope was to broaden our horizens and learn more about the different kinds of fish that are commonly eaten by the Japanese as sushi. We were disappointed by this tasting for two reasons: the quality of the food was mediocre - because the restaurant, by our guide's own admission, was average quality, and because the food had been sitting out for some time before we ate it; and we were looking for more variety in the foods served. I must mention that asparagus wrapped in bacon and fried chicken were two particular disappointments because they were common foods we eat as Americans, even if the chicken had a ponzu sauce on it. While our guide talked about all the years of training and complex recipes involved in preparing sushi; I failed to see this applied to the rest of the presentations because they were simply a piece of plain, unseasoned, sauceless, fish on top of rice. I was surprised that there were no fish eggs with any of the sushi. This is something I see often in sushi restaurants and always wondered about. I have seen many colors and sizes of fish eggs. It wasn't mentioned at all by our guide and I forgot to ask. I did enjoy the host, as he gave fun facts about etiquette. He had a great personality and seemed to have alot of experience with eating sushi. | ||||||

Excellent experience! Would do it again....

| We were first timers to New York and found it both informative culturally / historically and a great way to try before you buy when it comes to the cafes and restaurants in the village. Next time we come, we are going to stay in this area rather than in Times Square as it is packed with the restaurants and cafes we love. Susan, our guide, was excellent. She is a lifetime New Yorker and had a wealth of information about the history and culture of the area and the food that relates to it. We would definitely recommend this as a must do experience for food lovers. | ||||||
