Overview

This tour will take you off the beaten path to a local neighborhood that is one of the most culturally diverse not only in New York City, but the entire world!

You will be led by a born and raised native New Yorker who grew up in the neighborhood.

We will travel via food from Asia to South America without leaving the neighborhood. We will eat a lot and all food we eat on the tour is included in the price.

Although this area is off the beaten path, it is only a short subway ride from Midtown Manhattan.

Beyond the delicious food, you will be transported into a full sensory experience unlike any other in New York City!

    What To Expect

    We will be exploring the world via street food in the one of the world’s most diverse areas just 15-20 minutes from Midtown Manhattan.

    We will be eating a lot. ALL food we order on the tour is included in the price!

    In this neighborhood of Queens, carts and trucks come out with some of the most delicious food to be had in NYC. Many places we visit are hole in the wall, hidden gems that aren't easily noticed if you were to walk through the neighborhood on your own.

    These are places that we frequent and where we eat often and want to share them with you! We'll also share more information about the neighborhood, vendors and cuisines so you can learn more along with getting a great meal.

    Often, the vendors will change by day, so each tour may be unique. Our journey may take you from Tibet to Mexico and more in between.

    You will have the opportunity to learn more about New York City from a native's perspective.

    Itineraries can be tweaked for dietary restrictions. Come with an open mind, comfortable shoes, empty stomach and we'll take care of the rest!

    Other things to note:

    We will be walking about two miles outdoors with minimal seating or tables.
