Experience Details

A lot of the focus of Chinatown tends to be in the historically Cantonese area. In this tour you will experience the entirety of Chinatown. We'll head east to the less-touristy, more Fujianese area, which was once considered part of the Lower East Side. We'll make our way through the backstreets before arriving at the more well-known Cantonese area. Finally, we'll brush past Little Italy to the western edge of Chinatown and eat a delicious desert.


We can accommodate vegetarians, but please reach out directly with other food allergies. We'll do our best to accommodate all dietary preferences.

What You’ll Experience

Chinatown

With the most stops of any Chinatown food tours, we’ll visit FIVE of Chinatown's best restaurants and eat dumplings, pork buns, tea cakes, and noodles. While you eat, I will let you know the history of the dishes and the history of the neighborhood. All of the places we will go are known for one item, so I will order while you eat! Other things to note: Bring warm clothes, a mask, comfortable walking shoes, a hat, a good mood and a large appetite!
