We loved the Melting Pot tour which took us through the lower east side, Little Italy and the fringes of Chinatown. The food samples were delicious ( the pickles were our group's favorite!) and Susan provided interesting historical information at each stop. A more friendly and welcoming guide you will not find! If you love food and are looking for... More

We loved the tour, the food, and Susan. She gave us tons of information and really made the tour enjoyable. All of the places we visited had great food!

We have been to New York several times and this trip was for our youngest daugther's spring break. She is a senior in high school and had one of her best friends with her for five days. We signed up for this tour based upon the reviews and to do something different. The 18-yr-old girls LOVED it and so did... More

Susan takes you on a tour of the Lower East Side during the NY Nosh Tour, armed with a map of the history of the area and a keen sense for some WONDERFUL FOOD! Not only did we sample some great foods, we learned about the history of each food place and what the neighborhood was like back in the... More

Susan was a ray of sunshine on the gloomy, drizzly Sunday morning my husband and I met up with her at Yonah Schimmel's knish store for the NY Nosh Tour. Her wonderful stories about the Lower East Side -- past and present -- held our interest, and she introduced us to exciting and comforting flavors like fresh-baked knishes, salmon pastrami,... More

We loved this tour. Our guide, Susan, was indeed very enthusiastic about the food and for good reason. We "noshed" around the markets, delis, restaurants and food stalls around the Lower East Side, Chinatown, and Little Italy. all the while learning about the amazing history and development of these neighborhoods through the years. The melting pot was melting in our... More

Susan's food and walking tours are a real find. We love discovering new parts of New York, and Susan made the NY Nosh tour fun, informative, and entertaining for a family of seven, ranging in age from 10 to 50. This tour had lots of interesting food-enough that we did not eat lunch after-and it was unusual, enjoyable, and most... More

I was very lucky to happen upon Susan's tour, not only was the cost much more reasonalbe than other more heavily advertised tours, but I liked that she limits to small groups so you really have a chance to ask questions. We laughed, I learned, and of course I ate, as we traversed the neighborhoods of the Lower East Side... More

We did the "Melting Pot Tour" in June 2009 together with 4 other people. As we were a little earlier at the meeting point, the Essex Street Market, we went throuht the market booths on our own and did not find anything special about this place. The impression changed completely when Susan Rosenbaum, our guide, explained us the special stories... More
