Did this Boston food tour which took place in the North End of Boston. Large selection of different foods and locales. The key to a good food tour is the guide. In this case we had Leah which made an average food tour into a great adventure. She was very engaging with the group but not over the top like many tour guides are. We definitely encourage people to take this tour with Leah. Lobster roll was excellent.

Our tour guide Leah Ramuglia was AWESOME!!! Not only did she take us to some of the best keep secret food place in Boston, but she also gave us a history lesson of the North End. While eating Lobster Rolls, Boston honey, Italian family made sandwiches and pizza, - 1750's Colonial Historic Chocolate and Boston famous cannolis; we learned about Paul Revere, Rose Elizabeth Fitzgerald Kennedy, the culture changes of the North End of Boston and saw many iconic place that have been around since along ago as the 1600's. I would highly recommend this tour if you want to meet the local small family owned restaurant and to see the old neighborhoods in Boston. Truly a great experience. Thanks again Leah.

I've been on a few food tours before, but this has been the best thus far. I came to Boston with 5 other people (3 couples). We are all foodies and have a great appreciation for history which is why we chose this city to explore. My friend found this tour on a whim and what really got her was that we get to try a lobster roll. Well that's what we started the food tour by meeting at the Boston Public Market and eating a lobster roll from Red's Best. The portion we got was roughly half of a regular roll and I was glad since it made room for other eats of the day. One guy in our group has a shellfish allergy and Leah (our tour guide) was so accommodating not only to allergies, but also picky eaters. =) My friend ended up eating the millennial staple - avocado toast. A pretty good substitute from what he told me. Next, we got to eat some roasted nuts from Q's Nuts. It was nice to hear from the owner and get his company's story. We then tried honey from the Boston Honey Company. I've never had a honey tasting before, but it was great to discover how it can be paired with different foods. We then made our way to check out the weekly market that takes place outside for a true Boston local experience. Leah was nice enough to get everyone strawberries to eat before we headed out to the North End. Once there, we got to eat the Original sandwich from Salumeria Italiana. I'm not crazy about gremolata, but that sandwich was tasty with that on it. We then had pizza from Monica's Mercato. You wouldn't think Boston as a pizza place, but it was another tasty bite to eat. Something different we went to was a 1700's colonial chocolate from Captain Jackson's Historic Chocolate Shop. We got to try chocolate just like they did back in the day and got to see the process on how they made it. One of my group's favorite stops was at the Golden Goose Market since we absolutely loved the kitchen sink sausages! So tasty and the house made sauces of honey mustard and horseradish (I believe) were delicious. We gulped this down with Down the Road Kolsch and Dirty Mayor Citizen's Cider. Finally, we ended the day with mini cannolis from Modern Pastry which ended up being my favorite cannoli of the city. Leah was the most excellent guide. She really gave us the local knowledge we all wanted to experience. We never felt rushed to go anywhere and she was patient with some of the stragglers in my group whether we were buying souvenirs or taking pictures. I loved how accommodating the tour was with the food options. I also enjoyed eating in different spots of the city rather than inside the restaurant as most places are small. It also gives us the chance to go over more history of the town that Leah gladly shared throughout the tour. I really hope other secret food tours are just was wonderful for our future travels.
