A great introduction to NYC's Chinatown

| This is my fourth Foods of New York tour, and Raheem (our tour guide) is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable member of their team. His facts and figures about Chinatown were wide-ranging, and the foods we tasted with him were outstanding. I'm reasonably sure I wouldn't have found these places myself, and as I travel alone it would have been difficult to try so many different foods. I waddled away from this tour happy. Thanks Raheem and Foods of New York. I'm signing up for the Sushi experience the next time I'm in town. | ||||||

| Dave was the tour guide. He was great. He really seems to have a handle on the area. He was more than good, he was great. He took the time to tell us everything about the restaurants, history etc. My wife and I could not have asked for more. My father and grandparents are from Williamsburg, Brooklyn, but this tour was fantastic. We consider ourselves foodies and the tour was great. If we were not foodies it still would have been great. My thanks to Dave for a great tour and being a professional in every sense. | ||||||

Guiltless Gourmet in Greenwich

| The tour is well-planned, easily walkable with plenty of sitting-to-eat breaks (I'm 20 weeks pregnant, and I never felt outpaced), and most importantly delicious food! The tour sampled 7 outstanding local establishments, while highlighting others that we might also like to enjoy (and many in my group did immediately go try the extra choices when the tour was over). We got a wonderful sense of the West Village--its character, history, gossip, and fabulous foods! A very, very special tour. I can't recommend it enough. | ||||||

We Loved The Tour and Sephra was an awesome guide!

| I brought 15 family members to NYC for my brothers 50th b'day. Our guide Sephara was well suited for this group from NJ....She wittily guided us through an intimate tour of the Village. My biggest surprise and pleasure was going inside the "Palma". I was worried this tour was going to be done from the sidewalk only..but the Palma restaurant was a stunning, sensory experience....this changed the whole mood of the tour....We all enjoyed the tour and the food we tasted was outstanding...I would only recommend a palate cleansing stop at the intermission....Well done Foods of NY and Zerve...Cris G, Morris Plains, NJ | ||||||

| Next time we get to NY, we will take another one of your tours. I will keep your Saturday nite Sushi tours in mind for our children and their husband/wife-they like sushi......it would be a great gift-but we would also have to consider hotel rooms for them. Sorry we didn't bring our camera, so we could have a chance to win a new tour..... | ||||||

Tour "OK" but not "Recommended!"
|

| Sun, Nov 15 11:30 AM | sepavol | Female | 30-39 | Local | Group of Friends | |
| There were a group of nine of us who decided to do the tour in Chelsea this year. Last year many of the women went to the tour in the Village and loved it. I lived in Chelsea for a few years and thought I'd see a lot of new things I haven't experienced, however, the entire tour was based in the Chelsea Market which is not very clear on the Website. Then when you leave the market you get to see three restaurants - but the two best ones you don't even get to have a tasting at their establishment. However, my biggest complaint was our tour guide. I thought she was rude and extremely unprofessional. Her comments and remarks could have easily offended someone, however, I married a New York boy so I'm used to it. When I asked a simple question of wanting to know where we would be visiting today - she had a tone and was extremely rude!!! To be honest, I could have given the tour much better and I would have been so much more polite and 'at ease' than she was. You could barely get her to give us enough time to take a picture - and all we wanted was a relaxing day - not a rushed one....very disappointed. Sharon | ||||||

| Take a step back in time, sample the "best of New York," and learn the secrets that even New Yorker's don't know. Our guide was delightful. I will certainly visit these establishments again! | ||||||

| I've lived in NJ my entire life, but the most I've ever done in the Village was come in, maybe eat at one place, and then leave. This opened my eyes to parts I've never seen and would have never known to stroll through. I felt like I was in a small historic town far away. Also, with SO many places to eat in NYC, choosing one is difficult, and often after spending so much time choosing one, does not live up to expectations. Taking this tour I learned about the places where we tasted, as well as many other places to add to the list as well. It's nice to learn about the history of the place, the history of the chef, and the philosophy of the restaurant. No online reviews ever give that much information. Most importantly, tasting the food was excellent. There was no delay, and the eating was spaced out perfectly. It varied from pizza to dessert to appetizer, etc.... so it was never too much of one thing. The food was superb, and the portions generous. I am a hungry person and I left the tour feeling satisfied - not hungry, not full: just right. Our tour guide was bright and friendly and full of excitement and personal experiences. Moving large groups of people through the streets and stopping and listening went smoother than I ever thought possible. Never did we go too fast, too slow, and never could we not hear her or get close enough. Overall - I'd recommend this to everyone who comes to NYC - it's more than you'll ever learn even if you are local, and it's a great alternative to the touristy midtown features for tourists. And best of all, you don't go hungry! | ||||||

| It was a pleasure touring the new Chelsea area. Tasting high quality foods was an enormous treat. There was plenty to time to give your feet a rest. The tour guide was knowledgeable and curious. This tour was well worth the value. Thank you. | ||||||

| Curt made the event. He was outstanding. Very personal. Very Knowledegable. Good sense of humor and energetic. You get more food than on the Grenwich tour and it's all good. You learn a lot about the area too. | ||||||

| It was great. I'm technically a local because I've lived in the city for 1 1/2 years. But originally hailing from Florida, I didn't know some of the information or most of the restaurants. So, it was a great experience for me! I went with friends who live here and friends from out of town. We all had a great time. The food was amazing!! I tried things that I would never had tried on my own, but in the situtation was more than willing to try! My only suggestion is an alcohol option. Extra $15 or so dollars to get drinks at a few of the locations. My group and I said we would definitely do that! I've already suggested this to other friends! :) | ||||||

| I had been on NYC tours before and thought it would be tough to be as good as the last but this was really a GREAT tour. Susan the guide was very good at making everyone feel comfortable. Her passion for the tour and her knowledge of the area and it's history made this one of the best tours that I had ever been on in the city! The choice of food was diverse and very exciting. The length of the tour was perfect and the volume of food was tremendous. Oh I forgot...it really speaks volumes that I had such a great time and it was a crapy raining day!....We got beyond the weather and had tons of fun! | ||||||
