We thoroughly enjoyed the immigrant food tour by our guide, Justin. He not only elaborated on the origins of the different foods we tried, but also gave us a better historic understanding of the area. We loved his recommendations and that he was so understanding and accommodating of our 7-month-old!

Second tour with this company and it did not disappoint. Really good food and lots of it and the history was very cool. I think it's very helpful to visit these neighborhoods with a tour.
