This was my third time in New York and this was this was my third time in New York and since I had visited most of the well-known tourist attractions, I decided to explore some of the lesser known areas such as Little Italy and Chinatown. Coming from a family of foodies, I figured a food tour would be the perfect way to learn about the culinary and historic backgrounds of these beautiful regeons. We decided to go on the little Italy and Chinatown food fest, and I can honestly say it was the best food tour I have ever been on. The food itself was incredible. We stopped off at a number of restaurants and shops, all of which showcased the local Italian and Chinese cuisine at its finest. From Little Italy, my favourite sample would have to be the gnocchi in a delicious Marinara sauce, and then from Chinatown my favourite would have to be the dim sum which was just to die for. But in my opinion, the thing that made this tour so exceptional was our fabulous tour guide Liz. She was gorgeous inside and out, making everyone of us feel truly welcome and comfortable. From the moment we arrived, she was super friendly, charismatic and full of fun, instantly putting a smile on our faces. As a native New Yorker her extensive knowledge of both areas made The tour even more enjoyable and her amazing culinary recommendations gave us lots of options of places to eat in New York. She was just so helpful and knowledgeable and such a lovely lady, definitely the best tour guide I have ever had and that's saying something as I have been on many walking tours. To anyone who is interested in food and history, this tour is perfect for you and if you are lucky enough to get Liz as your guide, you are in for an absolute treat! Thank you so much Liz for an amazing tour, it was definitely one of the highlights of our trip that we will never forget! X
