Description:

New York’s vibrant immigrant communities shaped the city’s inimitable atmosphere as well as its diverse food scene. Taste your way through the Financial District, stopping at food carts peddling dishes and delicacies from around the globe as you learn about the unique world of mobile urban eateries.

Meet your guide on Wall Street and set out on foot, following your nose in the direction of some of the city’s best food carts. Convenient for downtown workers and beloved by visitors and locals alike, these popular on-the-go kitchens are the perfect place for getting a taste of authentic New York street food.

The stops vary with each tour, but as you walk between Wall Street and the waterfront you might sample classic chicken over rice or grilled souvlaki dipped in tangy tzatziki sauce. Bite into crispy falafel over herb-seasoned rice, try the fusion flavors of Korean-Mexican tacos, take your taste buds to the Caribbean with jerk chicken, or enjoy the spicy mayonnaise and fresh pickled vegetables of a Vietnamese banh mi sandwich. As you dine around FiDi, listen as your guide describes some of the trials facing food cart vendors, and explains just how much work and dedication it takes to make these popular and casual dining destinations thrive.
