Greenwich Village Secret Food Tour
Overview
Greenwich Village has a history dating back hundreds of years, starting as a Native American fishing hole and trading post. As the Dutch, English and other immigrants settled into the area, they brought their food traditions and Old World recipes that New Yorkers still revere today.
On this approximately 3-hour walking food tour, you will eat your way through the iconic and famously delicious Greenwich Village, uncovering the origins of some of New York's quintessential foods and tasting how they have evolved into the flavorful meals on the plate before you. Enjoy bites like a modern twist on the classic New York bagel, the iconic Reuben sandwich and, of course, a slice of hot and cheesy New York-style pizza.
The Village is one of the oldest areas in the city, and in between bites your experienced local guide will point out the vestiges of original Dutch settlements and early British influences that are still visible today. Stroll back through time down beautiful winding streets and learn about the neighborhood’s secret history that makes it such a unique enclave of New Amsterdam and Old New York.
