Great to learn about culture & food! - The tour was paced well & super informative -- I learned a lot about the history of Boston's China Town in between food stops. It was a good amount of food. I wasn't bursting, but felt very full by the end. Would definitely recommend!

Great food, great fun - Great food and our tour guide was a real gem. Very knowledgeable and a lot of fun. We really enjoyed getting to know Chinatown, even though we’ve been going there for years. We learned new spots, and visited places we hadn’t been in a while. All of them were great!

Highly recommend - Thanks to our wonderful tour guide Katie, we enjoyed not only amazing food but learned about the interesting history of Chinatown. Of note were places like Oxford St. and Ping On Alley that gave us a glimpse of how Chinatown once was. We visited 4 restaurants representing different styles of Asian cuisine. Samples were generous but not too much. Restaurants staff were welcoming. Great day!
