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.

Dante was knowledgeable, entertaining and a lot of fun to take the tour with. I enjoyed that everywhere we stopped, they clearly like Dante and treated us accordingly. I highly recommend this and any other tour Dante might give.

We had a wonderful time with Dante on our walking food tour! The food we sampled was all delicious, and a great well-rounded variety of lower east side bites. Dante was super friendly and a brilliant host; he's full of fun facts, interesting history and cheerful jokes. The whole atmosphere of his tour was simply great! We highly reccomend to anyone even slightly interested, it's a lot of fun and a memorable experience :D

Just awesome. Dante took my group of 50 students and 5 chaperones out on an awesome tour of Greenwich Village. It was one of the highlights of the trip and was the bar other tours were compared to for our group. In fact, myself and the other chaperones agreed we might have to do this tour last next time because it made it hard to enjoy other tours as much. Dante and his crew had the right personality, patience and humor to entertain and inform my large group teenagers for the three hours of the tour. The insight and wit they provided along with their appreciation for the history of New York and its food made it truly memorable. Students felt such a connection many asked for photos with him at the end of the tour. If you are going to New York you MUST sign up for this tour with Dante, you will not be disappointed. I plan on using him even with family visits to New York. No matter the size, the make up of the group, the tour will be fantastic.
