Brooklyn’s Smith and Court Streets and surrounding neighborhoods have a vibrant mix of small, locally owned, and artisanal food shops unlike almost any other neighborhood in America. On this Brooklyn food tour, you find out how these unique spots came to be, and with a local guide you discover just what it is that makes them special. Join a small group (max 14 guests) led by a food-loving local as you explore the delicious mom-and-pop shops and restaurants of New York.
