As a native New Yorker, I’ve selected some of the best flavors Little Italy and Chinatown have to offer. My family included bakers, farmers, and small-business owners, so I built this tour around long-standing, independent shops with exceptional reputations.
We begin with light, airy Hong Kong sponge cake and Thai tea, followed by pork-and-chive dumplings—with a vegetarian option available. Then comes truly excellent pizza—and yes, I’m a pizza snob—before we sample aged cheeses and salami at a century-old shop and finish with one of Little Italy’s finest cannoli.
With just 10 guests, the experience stays personal, relaxed, and immersive.
