Asia in Queens: Exploring NYC’s Largest Chinatown in New York City booking from $150.00

Asia in Queens: Exploring NYC’s Largest Chinatown

Overview

This diversity is perhaps best represented through Flushing’s stellar food scene. On this walk through the neighborhood, we’ll explore the area’s almost mind-blowing culinary diversity while also learning about Flushing’s fascinating history. We’ll visit vendors, the outdoor stands of local restaurants and some of Flushing’s mall-based food courts – considered by locals to have some of the area’s best eats – tasting delicacies from China, Korea, Vietnam and other countries. From stalls selling Hong Kong-style dim sum and snacks to bakeries turning out the Korean take on French pastries and a visit to a local kimchi maker, we’ll dive deep into the best that the neighborhood has to offer. On our Flushing food tour, we’ll take a look at some of area’s unique cultural markers, from a storefront Daoist temple to the Flushing Quaker Meeting House, built in 1694 – a testament to the important role the area, originally a Dutch settlement, has played in the history of New York.

One of the best food tours we've ever done! Esneider was a wonderful guide - friendly, knowledgeable and engaging. Besides eating an AMAZING array of foods, we learned about the history of Queens and visited some interesting local historical sites. We can't wait to try their other food tour in Queens!
