Folks must be will­ing to share por­tions and you should wear com­fort­able shoes since it’s two+ hours of walk­ing (I like to say you burn enough calo­ries to counter the food you eat). It’s six or seven stops (depends if some of the ven­dors are there). We usu­ally meet at 2 p.m. in the lobby of Chinatown’s Museum of Chi­nese in Amer­ica at 215 Cen­tre Street. Food costs included in the tour.

Here is a feed­back from Gerry Gomez Pearlberg:  “Jennifer 8. Lee’s gen­er­ous spirit, exten­sive knowl­edge, and culi­nary eclec­ti­cism made for a fab­u­lous after­noon adven­ture on her Chi­na­town Food Tour. She’s the ideal guide—creating a friendly and relaxed atmos­phere while shep­herd­ing us through one incan­des­cent eat­ing expe­ri­ence after another, punc­tu­ated by infor­ma­tive com­men­tary about the multi-layered cul­tural his­to­ries of one of Manhattan’s most vibrant neigh­bor­hoods. With plas­tic fork in hand, I’d fol­low her anywhere.”

(Love the fork note!) Maybe one day I’ll develop a ver­sion 2 of the foodie tour and peo­ple can level up. Also, I occas­sion­ally gather peo­ple for dim sum or other Asian food related events. These are kind of random.
