Fun and delicious food tour in Flushing! - Three of us took Owen’s food tour in Flushing’s Chinatown and it was fantastic! Owen is a fun, enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide. We went to five locations (none of which would we have found on our own!) and had excellent dishes at each one. Definitely recommend Owen and his tour!

A Professional Tour Guide's Review - A fantastic experience. As someone whose been a New York tour guide for years and does a tour through the Manhattan Chinatown, Owen impressed me both with knowledge of China and Chinese American history and his ability to convey it in way that was both interesting and engaging.
Even if you're just there for the food and not the history, Own's restaurant picks were top notch and really gave me a varied and unique experience of Chinese cuisine. Plus, there was enough leftover for a few meals the next day.
I've been on a lot of tours over my 5 years as a tour guide and it doesn't get much better then this.
Highly Recommended.

Native New Yorker gets Schooled ( in a good way!) - Let me start off with saying that the communications from Owen was amazing. He sent several messages and a picture so we would know who to look for. I was late (train delays) and he patiently waited for me.
His knowledge of Flushing was vast as well as his awesome stories about Chinese history. We ate so much food and had plenty to take home. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn about the biggest Chinatown in the WORLD!

Plenty of delicious food - We had a great time with Owen and the group. We had plenty of food, which was from various regions throughout China and Taiwan. It was absolutely delicious and Owen explained interesting facts about the food, its origins as well as the history of Chinatown in Queens. I would definitely recommend a tour with Owen. Thank you Owen for the tour.

Deep dive into Flushing food scene - Owen was an excellent guide through the history and food of Flushing. Having him there to open the door into the places you always wanted to try but wouldn't have the first clue as to how, or what, to order is liberating. We look forward to going back to explore the delicious options on our own.

Don't miss out on the real Chinatown - A great, great tour. Six delicious tastings in Flushing, the largest Chinese popuation in the US. Much less touristy than Chinatown in Manhattan. Owen is a professonal tour guide and, having grown up in China, has many stories to tell. Don't miss out.

Food and fun - worth it! - Only 5 stars because 10 is not an option! Ok let's get this out of the way; do not eat for a day or 2 before this trip. If that's not possible bring some kind of bag to carry leftovers and go slow at the start or you will be too full to enjoy the later stops! Really, it's a lot of food.
Owen was great. Very knowledgeable on the area, the culture, and the food. So worth it. Do yourself a favor and book this trip.
