Description

We begin our tour in SoHo with breakfast at one of New York's premier artisanal bread bakeries. If this has inspired you to try the craft yourself, you will find everything you need at SoHo's finest kitchenware store, our next stop.

We'll continue our stroll through this trendy area, admiring some of SoHo's most impressive cast iron buildings. We'll stop at a chic new chocolate shop as well as Dean and DeLuca, the world-famous food emporium, a wine shop, a Chinese department store, and a unique stationery store.

Then it's on to Little Italy, taking in charming street scenes and shops that gradually go from SoHo chic to Little Italy quaint.

We'll visit a homemade pasta store where over 25 varieties of fresh pasta are cut daily, a famed Italian pastry shop that has been in the neighborhood for over 100 years, and a family-owned cheese store where we'll taste velvety fresh mozzarella cheese.

After working up an appetite, we'll be ready to enjoy lunch at one of the loveliest restaurants in the neighborhood. The Chef will prepare a sumptuous meal for us, with all the colors, flavors and aromas of Italy. After lunch, he will escort you behind-the-scenes so you can see first hand a high speed, big city kitchen in action.
