As a New York resident, I'm a snob about local food, but stil like finding new places. The Chinatown/Little Italy food tour introduced me to multiple amazing restaurants I'll be going back to in the future. Our tour guide Alana was also knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and helpful (making special arrangements for me since I have food allergies). The history lessons were fun, and the food was great. I'd recommend the tour to a tourist or a local.

I did the NYC Chinatown, Little Italy Food Tasting Tour with Alana. It was a Christmas present from my mom to my fiance and I. The tour was very interesting and the food was AMAZING!! The guide was knowledgeable, helpful, and entertaining. Her genuine passion for the history, culture, and food really comes through and makes the tour exciting. This was a great way to spend the afternoon for both visitors or New Yorkers (like me) who want to know more about their city and all the wonderful culinary treats it has to offer. In addition to the three of us, there were many visitors from out of town who seemed to enjoy the tour as well. The tour also makes you look at food in a different way. It puts food in both a historical and cultural context. The treats that we tried were delicious. Alana was also very helpful in being conscious of and accommodating my fiance's peanut allergies. We really appreciated that. I highly recommend this tour if you want a fun activity, and I look forward to trying the restaurants that Alana recommended and revisiting those that we sampled on the tour in the future.

The tour was marvelous! I am from NYC and still live in NYC. It was great to learn and definitely a great experience learning all about China Town and Little Italy. Alana was awesome and definitely very knowledgeable about Little Italy and Chinatown. She gave us the history on historical sites in the community as well as how the food related to the culture. I brought my son along with his girlfriend and my husband and all of us enjoyed this walking tour along with the food. My son loved it, because all the foods were his favorites from Mozzeralla Cheese to Lychee cupcakes. I highly recommend this tour--the food was divine, and Alana provides great suggestions for some wonderful eateries."
