Small group size was a plus. Addie Tomei is the type of person that makes you feel like you have know her forever. Now I know why I have always liked her daughter...Because her mother is so like able. A lot of interesting information about the neighborhood and the tasting of some very good foods. The cooking school was excellent,a very clean, warm, friendly atmosphere. Our family really had a wonderful time.
Thanks Addie |

I thoroughly enjoyed the walking / cooking tour of Greenwich Village that I did with Addie in April 2006. As a visitor from Australia, it gave me the opportunity to visit some fantastic local produce stores in Greenwich Village and be guided by Addie, who has excellent local knowledge. If I had to pick a highlight from a day of highlights, it would be the fresh mozzarella (made on the premises) at Joe's Dairy. It was truly delicious and made me wish it was in my neighbourhood!
The cooking class was also very good - it was hands on, but not arduous, and at the end we got to eat the results which were delicious. Chef Paul was very knowledgable and helpful and a good instructor.
I would highly recommend doing a Savoury Sojourn with Addie - she is an extremely knowledgable guide and a charming host. I would love to return to NY and do another tour with Savoury Sojourns as it was a highlight of my trip. |

Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area and the stores that were visited. There is a nice variety of places to see and you are never rushed. The cooking class is a great way to finish off the trip. The instructor is very easy to get along with and the recipes are designed for simplicity and taste. All in all a very nice time that I would recommend to anyone wanting to explore the culinary side of NY. |

I'd do it again, next time I visit NYC. |

After taking this tour, I felt like a New Yorker even though I'm from Boston!!! Savory Sojourns
gave you the inside look at Greenwich Village and took us to places I would probably
have never ventured. Our cooking lesson was hands on which I enjoyed very much. You
didn't just observe...........you participated, which made it that much more fun. Would definitely
go on another Savory Sojourns tour. |
