Cyndi was so wonderful, energetic and knowledgeable!! She knows the owners and staff, she was on time and prepared to take us on an exiting adventure!! As she took us around it was noticeable she had done her research and knew the history of the area. The food she had us sample was amazing and delicious, all items I would have never picked in my own. My husband and I were so happy we chose her as our guide! Top tier experience!!

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you so much, Josie! We’re delighted you enjoyed the energy, the stories, and the variety of flavors throughout the tour. Introducing guests to dishes they might not choose on their own—and seeing them enjoy the experience—is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do. It was a pleasure hosting you and your husband, and we hope to welcome you again for another memorable food tour in the future. Happy anniversary from Cyndi! Grazie e Buon Appetito!

Great tour, Great Food, New Friends!

John_Y, Jan 2026
First... the restaurants and food tasting choices... EXCELLENT! Cindy and Andrea were so friendly and passionate tour guides! We learned all about the local neighborhood, the fabulous stories and history of how it came to be. Not to give anything away but the "surprises" were great. We come to north Miami regularly and decided to venture north to FT Lauderdale, what a great way to eat your way around the Broward Center area before a show or just visiting. The rest of our group was awesome, made some new friends which made the day even better! Highly recommend!

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you so much, John! We’re delighted you enjoyed the tour—from the food and stories to the fun surprises along the way. It was a real pleasure having you with us, and we’re so glad the experience brought together great flavors, local history, and even some new friendships. We’d love to welcome you again next time you’re in town! Grazie e Buon Appetito!

A delightful experience!

Kathleen_M, Apr 2025
A delightful experience! Our tour guide Cyndi filled us in on fascinating Fort Lauderdale historical facts while introducing us to four unique, authentic restaurants. The food was fabulous! We barely could fit in dessert we were so full. Cyndi has established great connections with restaurant owners and staff so our service was first class. The owners even came to chat with us! We hope to revisit these places and will definitely look for other food tours that Cyndi offers.

Response from Host, May 2025

Thank you so much! We’re delighted you had such a memorable experience and enjoyed the combination of history, authentic cuisine, and exceptional hospitality. Cyndi truly enjoyed sharing some of Fort Lauderdale’s hidden gems with you. We would love to welcome you back for another culinary adventure in the future!
