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 an amazing time last weekend on Dante's Lower East Side Tour. First off, this is a ton of food (9 stops!). Definitely do not eat anything substantial prior to this. Second, you couldn't ask for a nicer, more personable guide in Dante. He knows everything about every spot and can skip every line to get food quick. Some tours we've been on in other cities struggle with this, but Dante's been doing this a long time and is a pro. And oh man, the food is amazing. Loved all the stops and are still talking about everything we had. Couldn't be more highly recommended.

I’m so full I can barely lift my fingers to type. What an incredible tour and what an incredible tour guide we had in Dante. With 9 food stops we covered a lot of territory. Dante got the food, utensils and napkins with ease. He provided the history of the Lower East Side, the particular restaurant we were visiting and the food we were eating. From the first hello to our goodbyes, Dante was friendly, funny and easy going. If you can participate in only one food tour, make Dante’s 3-Hour Lower East Side Walking and Food Tour your choice. Absolutely loved it.

Phenomenal food tour with Dante! He’s knowledgeable, personable, funny and clearly enthusiastic about his job. The success of any tour rests on the shoulders of the tour guide and Dante knocked it out of the park!
