New York Experience: Brooklyn Food, History & Culture Tour

Overview
Experience the best travel stories for yourself!
You may not immediately compare Brooklyn to a small town, but the hippest borough is made up of distinct community-oriented neighborhoods that thrive and blossom because of the local mom-and-pop businesses, many of which have been here for generations. Throughout this neighborhood food tour, we celebrate the businesses by telling the stories of the people involved, by sampling some of the delicious food being sold.

What To Expect
1
Smith Street
We spend the first part of the tour along one of the most exciting restaurant districts of Brooklyn. Wandering up and down Smith Street in Carroll Gardens, we stop into many of the local mom and pop businesses including a renowned baker, an impressive cheese shop, and an adorable little cookie bakery.

Carroll Gardens
As we stroll through this picturesque neighborhood we learn how it got its name, about its history as an Italian and Irish immigrant neighborhood, and how the waterfront helped transform it. We meet residents and shop owners and taste some great pastries, house roasted coffee, and visit an old-school soda fountain.

Cobble Hill
This historic district features some of the most beautiful brownstones in all of Brooklyn. Feel like a local as we wander through the residential streets and beautiful parks. Admire the architecture and visit many of the mom and pop businesses in the neighborhood.

Brooklyn Heights
We just touch on the southern end of this historic neighborhood by walking down the main commercial street of Atlantic Avenue. Here we get a sense of how locals shop by visiting one of the legendary Middle Eastern bakeries.

I highly recommend experiencing Brooklyn through this food tour. Not only do you get to experience great food, but you also learn about the history of Brooklyn. Every stop had great food and interesting people. Brian was a fantastic guide to this experience. He was friendly, knowledgeable and very willing to help us further on our trip. He even emailed us later to ask us if we needed any recommendations for our time remaining in New York. This is a can't miss food tour.
