I had not been to Chinatown in many years. Jacob was our tour guide. He was extremely knowledgeable about the neighborhoods and their history connecting it to CA including the Gold Rush. Also Jacob was able to answer all of our questions regarding the food and drinks that we tasted as well as the streets of Chinatown that we walked. I strongly recommend Jacob and this tour if you want a delicious and historical afternoon.

I enjoyed All the delicious dumplings we ate at the meeting place. Also the leader did a great job. A lot of variety ending with a fun tea experience.
