Meet a New Neighborhood Food Tour: Astoria
About this Event
Meet a New Neighborhood tours are food tours by locals, for locals. Every Tuesday and Thursday evening, we go to a different area in the outer boroughs and spend 90 minutes exploring three food stops to illuminate the area’s history and present culture. Neighborhoods aren't the only thing you meet on these experiences, though. Our tours begin with a happy hour so you can mingle with other New Yorkers wanting to learn more about their city. And if you hit it off with people during the tour, we end by walking over to a dessert stop so you can continue the local food adventures with your new friends. Meet a New Neighborhood food tours are a way to experience New York and meet New Yorkers offline, seeing the city and its people with your own eyes rather than through a screen. Whether you've lived here for decades or moved from elsewhere a week ago, visiting a new neighborhood with us will help you meet and eat a new side of New York.
This week, we’re visiting Astoria, one of New York City’s most diverse neighborhoods. We’ll get into the area’s early development, and visit restaurants that represent the immigrant communities who have made Astoria home through the years, sampling everything from Bosnian pastries to Egyptian style fish.
Meet a New Neighborhood food tours cost $50. Your ticket includes a 90-minute tour with three included food stops, plus opportunities at a happy hour and dessert stop to mingle with other guests (drinks, dessert, and guide gratuities are not included with the ticket price). The tours are presented by NYC Unscripted, a local tour company run by licensed expert local foodie guides and writers.
