Private dining and exclusive treatment is what Foods of New York is bring to the public but please do not think that any tours would be exclusive of the usual exotic and revolutionary experience of New York. Relish in the tasting of delicacies and exquisite specialties offered by classic food establishment and unconsciously multitask as you become enlightened about historical, cultural, architectural and entertaining aspects of New York neighborhoods.

Tours last approximately three hours and enough food tastings are served that lunch afterwards is unnecessary. Although exclusive, this tour is not for people easily turned off by unpredictable weather or walking; for rain or shine, the fun must go on and with only one tour (up to date being a sit-down experience) Foods of New York Inc. advocate that persons interested wear comfortable shoes as tasting is done on the go!

 You need not worry as restroom stops are available throughout each tour and the prize at the end of each walking session (which is like a free tour of New York just more up close and personal rather than from behind the constrains of a bus) is scrumptious food. In addition to footwear, persons new to the city are asked to wear appropriate clothing because New York is pretty warm in the summer and cold in the winter.

Classy!
