Chinatown and Little Italy Food Tour | Tasty Tours NYC

Dina_F, Jul 2026

Tasty, fun and timely

Emily was a wonderful guide to the delicious foods of Chinatown and Little Italy. I selected this tour because my 12 year old nephew is a foodie and loves Asian food. The tour, on a very hot summer day, was well paced. Emily found us shade when needed and most of the stops were air conditioned. We tasted dumplings, treats from a popular Chinese bakery, lovely sponge cake and Thai tea and then delicious raviolini, pizza and finally cannoli. Along the way Emily entertained us with stories about the neighborhoods we visited as well as the history of all the eateries .

Highly Recommend and Beautiful

It is a spiritually humbling experience with the possibility of grieving loved ones coming to pay their respects to family members within the catacomb. A grieving widow came to visit her recently departed husband after spending 43 years married during our tour. The experience gives mortality motivation and perspective we all need in our busy lives. The history presented and the connection to those laid to rest is a great experience. As a Catholic, we were given time to pray and spend time in reflection.

Wall Street Insider Tour with a Finance Professional

New Fidi Residents Mind is Blown!

Jesse is a super warm and upbeat tour guide, with his own personal anecdotes from working at the SEC as well. I also appreciated that he didn’t shy away from discussing the hard points of this history - the slavery market, bombings in the 20th century, and how 9/11 impacted the area. As a new resident to Fidi, I really appreciated learning about my neighborhood - and how connected it is to the founding of our country. I’ll never look at it the same!
