Lower East Side
Multi-Ethnic Walking and Eating Tour
Join us for a tasty tour of the Jewish Lower East Side, Chinatown, and Little Italy combining the history of the diverse Lower East Side with food samplings from local shops & markets. We will explore the historic and gastronomic delights of these diverse immigrant neighborhoods, including America’s first urban playground, historic Orchard & Hester Streets and the Bowery, plus we’ll learn about the early British farmers of the Lower East Side. While exploring the multi-faceted ethnic history of New York we will munch on (among other items) Jewish Pickles, Dominican plantains, Malaysian beef jerky, cannoli, and fresh mozzarella. Bring your curiosity and your appetites!
