Discover why the OREO COOKIE was invented in this building in 1912. Enjoy artisanal foods including; an artisanal NY hot dog from Dickson’s, Sicilian Pizza from Filaga, NY State Cheeses from Saxelby’s, a delicious Italian Crostata from Buon Italia, a Japanese inspired Taco from Takumi Taco, Buttermilk Biscuit and Homemade Jam from Sarabeth’s, Gelato from L’arte Del Gelato, and always something special from Chelsea Market Baskets.
Once outside, walk on the HIGH LINE*, NYC’s elevated outdoor park. You’ll love hearing tales of the High Line trains that once served the butchers below the tracks as you wander through THE MEATPACKING DISTRICT. Find out how this area went from NOT to HOT!
- The Original Greenwich Village Food and Culture Walking Tour: Our favorite Mom & Pop food establishments in the Old Italian Neighborhood. Join us on a delicious food tasting and cultural/historical journey through the old Italian section of Greenwich Village (The West Village). Taste delicious foods from our favorite mom-and-pop-owned shops and restaurants, the ones frequented by the locals. Learn the back stories of how and why the owners of these establishments came to the Village and made it their home for so many years.
You will also see secluded gardens, winding tree-lined streets that are not part of the NYC grid system, beautifully renovated row houses from the 1800s, classic immigrant tenement buildings, the narrowest house in NYC, and much much more! And by the time the tour is over you will understand why the West Village is so unique from the rest of NYC.
- Heart & Soul of Greenwich Village Food Tour: Join us on a delicious multi–ethnic food tasting and cultural/historical journey through the Heart & Soul of Greenwich Village (The Central Village – the area surrounding Washington Square Park and New York University). Find out why this area of the Village is so popular for its diverse food scene, rich history, culture, counter-culture, distinct architecture, and vibrant Greenwich Village nightlife.
We will also visit Washington Square Park (the town square of Greenwich Village) and learn about its radical protesters, infamous hanging tree, the Washington Square Arch, and how the “live and let live” beatniks, writers, and poets of the 50s and 60s made Greenwich Village their home. Walk the same streets that Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Jerry Seinfeld, Chris Rock, and Amy Schumer did while learning about the music and comedy scene, and why this section of NYC can only be described as The Village!
- Nolita & Secrets of Little Italy Food and Culture Walking Tour: Tour the cozy corners of Nolita where old-world charm meets a cool downtown vibe. The tour includes: all attendees gathering around a toastie wood-fired brick oven watching the pizziola make rustic pizza while sipping delicious Italian red wine. Then explore the neighborhood and taste an Asian crepe taco, a Spanish chorizo and manchego cheese sandwich, Mexican roasted corn, a scrumptious Italian rainbow cookie, and a very artistic and gourmet chocolate Bon Bon. Come explore this eclectic, hip, vibrant downtown neighborhood through its food, stories, and people. What was once Little Italy is now a blend of foods from all over the world that you’ll get to taste while hearing the history of what was, what is, and what has become one of New York’s hottest neighborhoods. Between the bespoke boutiques, cute cafes, and remarkable restaurants, you’ll want to move in and never move out!
- Flavors of Chinatown Food and Culture Walking Tour: Chinatown can definitely be intimidating, even for a native New Yorker! It’s a diverse neighborhood with historic landmarks, hidden side streets, delicious foods from all over Asia, and it’s home to one of the largest populations of Chinese people in the western hemisphere. Join us as we share interesting stories, sights, and delicious foods.
Deciding where to eat in Chinatown can be overwhelming, and this is where we come in! Enjoy 3 mouthwatering sit-down tastings: Dim Sum (5 types), Authentic Peking Duck (prepared as if you were in Beijing), Delicious made-to-order Malaysian roti bread with curry dipping sauce, and more. The tour ends with a delicate and delicious Chinese pastry. Join us for a memorable journey that will leave you with a deep understanding of the flavors, history, and confidence to navigate NYC’s Chinatown!
