On the Flavors of New York Tour, learn how to eat pizza like a New Yorker (hint: they don’t use forks!).  On this tour you’ll try all the ‘classic New Yorker’ favorites… from the local favorite spots!  Try some homemade Eastern European style delicacies like homemade meatloaf or cheese blintzes.  Enjoy a juicy NY hot dog like a local.  Have a real NY hand rolled bagel with a “schmear.”  Savor some locally made ice cream.  Taste a hot slice of NY style cheese pizza at an authentic neighborhood pizza joint.  Satisfy your sweet tooth with an old fashioned Egg Cream!

These tours may be tastings, but you WILL get full!

    NoLIta is such a great area for shopping! I roamed the area for a whole week, and my husband wasn’t so happy about that 🙂
