What To Expect

Lower East Side

Stroll. Learn. Nosh. Now you can explore an up-and-coming hip neighborhood that's rich in history and stacked with infamously famous eats. The Doughnut Plant Russ & Daughters

Essex Street Market

Stop and shop (if you wish) at Essex Street market but before you do we visit my friend Saad who gives us a tasting of Balsamic Vinegar and Olive Oils at his Essex Olive & Spice shop.

The Pickle Guys

The Pickle Guys pickles almost everything. We try three of their top sellers. They’re sweet. They’re sour. They’re awesome.

Economy Candy

Economy Candy has been around since 1937, dishing out chocolates, nuts, gummies and the candy so many generations have grown up on.

We had a great time doing the food tour on the Lower East Side. Dante is uniquely qualified as a local expert in food and history of the area.

I've never done a walking tour before so when I came across this last month when we were looking for something to do in the city the reviews seemed all positive so I thought why not give it a shot. Well I certainly am glad that I did! We were in the city celebrating my sisters 50th Birthday and we couldn't have asked for anything better. Dante was such an amazing tour guide with a little history, a lot of laughs and the food was amazing. He was so personable and we went into places that we definitely never would have had he not guided us in. The family will all be back up in June and are looking forward to booking the Greenwich Village tour with him. I highly recommend this tour! Thanks Dante for a great afternoon!

Had a great time with Matt as our tour guide! Having moved here from D.C., I was eager to experience what makes NYC unique in terms of food & history. My boyfriend & I took our first food tour & were not disappointed. Having Matt as our tour guide, we were able to appreciate the iconic restaurants & learn about the rich history behind each local stop. From the "melt-in-your-mouth" pastrami to the "to-die-for" moist, coffee donut, we now have local haunts to visit again & again.
