What is a Food Tour?

A Food Tour combines an area's culture, history, and architecture with local food and drink. We integrate historic and cultural sites with visits to local establishments to enjoy specially created dishes. We meet chefs, proprietors, brewmasters, farmers, and bakers and learn how their story enhances the story of the area.

Our Food tours and events have been featured in numerous magazine and newspapers, including The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, the Washington Post, the Boston Globe, The Indianapolis Star, Cleveland Magazine, The Baltimore Sun, Inc. Magazine, and Bon Appetit Magazine.

Why is the food and drink of New Orleans so important? It is hard to find another city in the country, much less the world, with as rich of a culinary history as New Orleans. Spanning well beyond Poboy's and Gumbo, New Orleans and its surrounding region is at the junction of two remarkable and unique cuisines, Creole and Cajun. From the snowball to the Sazerac, Hubig's to Leidenheimer's, Jambalaya to Étouffée, and everything in between, the area's legendary culinary culture in the most accurate, respectful, and sustainable way possible.
