Queens Corona’s Culinary Essentials Tour

Огляд
Corona is the culinary epicenter of New York’s Latin American community, a place where you can find regional specialties ranging all the way from the Tierra del Fuego up to Mexico’s northern border with the United States. On this tour of Corona’s culinary essentials, we hit the streets on a Saturday, when the griddles and grills in this already lively neighborhood are working overtime and the street vendors come out in full force.
Starting at Corona Plaza, we will drop by a family-run Mexican bakery for sweet breakfast pastries. From there, we’ll continue to an out-of-the-way spot where we’ll sit down with neighborhood families to enjoy a hearty Mexican-style brunch of pit-roasted goat.
We will continue along Roosevelt Avenue, stopping by street vendors, an Argentinean bakery and make a stop for a “cholado". We’ll end our day at a small bodega. This last stop leaves us at the edge of Jackson Heights and Elmhurst, having tried what makes Queens such a culinary Promised Land.

Corona
We’ll start our day in pedestrian-only Corona Plaza, the neighborhood’s bustling meeting place, and drop by a family-run Mexican bakery where we’ll join the weekend ritual of picking out sweet breakfast pastries and rolls from large trays set out for the customers. From there, we’ll continue to an out-of-the-way spot where we’ll sit down with neighborhood families to enjoy a hearty Mexican-style brunch of pit-roasted goat.

Jackson Heights
Our food tour in Queens continues along Roosevelt Avenue, which on the weekends is lined with street vendors from throughout Latin America. To satisfy our sweet tooth, we’ll drop into an Argentinean corner bakery for some traditional treats and make a stop for a “cholado,” a hybrid frozen dessert and fruit salad also known as the Colombian Snow Cone. We’ll end our day at a small bodega opened by a man from Veracruz, Mexico, going inside for a celebratory (shrimp) cocktail. This last stop leaves us at the edge of Jackson Heights and Elmhurst, two immigrant neighborhoods that hold their own culinary riches (and which are further explored as part of our longer Queens walk), a tantalizing reminder that during this half-day we’ve only scratched the surface of what makes Queens such a culinary Promised Land.

The tour was fantastic. Sierra was super knowledgeable about food and culture/language, tailored the information given to what was requested, and sensitive to our needs as we went through the day. They're also very kind and friendly, which made the day fun and engaging. I'd highly recommend this tour, specifically with Sierra, and will seek out future tours with them!
