Turnstile Tours

So if you have ever been to New York City, you have inevitably eaten from a food cart... even if it is just grabbing a hot dog as you run to the subway.  But with the food cart craze sweeping the nation, your mind may often wander to query where to find the best carts in the city, and what types of foods can you expect to find at these extraordinary eateries. 

Well, Turnstile Tours has made that simple!  Join them on a lunch tour that delves deep into the food cart industry in either Midtown or the Financial District.  And while you will most definitely leave this tour completely full and planning a late dinner, you won't just sample delicious foods from a vast array of vendors, but you will get an education on just what is involved in setting up a food cart. 

I opted for the Midtown tour, and it was literally like a jaunt from one country to another, munching on tasty ethnic foods, NYC staples, and desserts that have evolved into full meals.  These food vendors range from immigrants to successful chefs, and hearing their stories is nothing short of miraculous and inspirational. 

If you are hungry, but want a little more than just your average fast food lunch, then this is the tour for you!
