The picture of the pastrami sandwich almost says it all… we are practically drooling just looking at it! Before we get to the food, let us paint you a picture of this unique experience. On this Lower East Side Food Tour, we explore an area going through more changes than any other in Manhattan. At one time, the Lower East Side was the most densely-populated place on earth and also a hub for shopping. These days, you can witness an up-and-coming hip neighborhood that’s a combination of old and new school – one that’s rich in history and stacked with famous eats.
Your tour guide is a lifelong New Yorker who will show you all the best food on this Lower East Side walking tour.
In terms of history, you learn about the pushcart culture of the early 1900s. And, of course, you get to taste some of the most delicious food the city has to offer! Savor the best pastrami ever, and satisfy your sweet or your sour tooth. Speaking of the latter, you literally get yourself into a pickle on this tour! Bring your appetite!
