⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“This is not a mainstream, run-of-the-mill tour. Tom is the owner, lives locally, and has real relationships with the mom-and-pop shops along the route. You meet the people who put their heart and soul into their businesses. Highly recommended.” - Stephen P.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“If you want authentic — this is it. Well paced, incredibly informative, and some of the best food we’ve ever had in New York. We’re already planning to come back and do the mob tour next time.” - Sarah K.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Tom brings humor and deep local knowledge. He knows everyone in the neighborhood and shares stories you wouldn’t hear anywhere else. We would book again in a heartbeat.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.
“Better than we ever could have imagined. We would have paid double for what we got.” - Carl J
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Tom was our guide and he was fabulous! He even shared his musical talents with us. Highly recommend!” - Heather G.


About


I'm Tom. A native New Yorker with Italian roots.
My grandparents came from Naples and farmed in New Jersey pre-lnstagram. My grandfather Antonino had a pastry shop in
Brooklyn at the turn of the century.
I created these tours to share the food, the people, and the stories that shaped who I am. Every stop is a place I know. Every owner is a friend.
As a native New Yorker, I'll show you the real New York, and with small groups, you'll get an intimate, personal, and fun experience.

"Not a tour guide — more like a New Yorker friend showing you around who happens to know every shop owner"
