Part II of our tour (via a short bus connection) goes to the Van Nest neighborhood, where we visit a cluster of relatively new Palestinian and North African markets, buy food from a Yemeni restaurant, and conclude with dessert at a 90-year-old Italian pastry shop.

One of the longer Noshwalks, it includes the carefully planned grid of Rego Park with the more chaotic (and much older) layout of Corona. We begin with pumpkin dumplings a la Uzbekhistan, followed by a visit to a Persian market, tastings of stuffed eggplant and a herring dish from a Central Asian market; ices from the Lemon Ice King, Mexican tacos, and Ecuadorian dessert. At last year's tour we concluded with a traditional dish of figs and cheese.

Bensonhurst (Brooklyn)
Saturday, June 22 • 1:00 PM
People who think Bensonhurst means Italian will be surprised at the true variety of tastes you'll experience here. But we will begin with visits to some of the more traditional Italian places, including a bakery with delicious prosciutto bread and another that makes amazing broccoli bread, and, yes, we'll also stop by a place with home made mozzarella, and after that we'll head to bakery with wonderful traditional Sicilian fig cookies and, yes, stop at one of the better Italian markets in all of New York City.
After that, it changes to Russian, Israeli, Albanian (yup – we can have bureks!) and Turkish. In fact, our final stop will be a café for Turkish coffee – amidst one of the best clusters of produce markets anywhere in NYC. This is one tour where a backpack is definitely warranted to bring fresh goods home. A Russian market on this tour deserves extra time when we're ready to leave and you can head back (near the Turkish place) to get delicious traditional prepared foods.
Oh yes – we take a detour to see one of the most indiosyncratic houses in all of Brooklyn… perhaps all of NYC. My only teaser is one word: Elvis. You will want your camera on this tour!

We'll have water to rinse off everything.
If we sit down in a restaurant rather than take food out, we will share in the tip. Such sit-down stops have been added to a number of tours (even when the stops are short) and these will be indicated at the outset of each tour and in the text. Your guide will order the tastes. Personal orders will be covered by the customer.
If you are having difficulty with the Shopping Cart or PayPal, ploease visit our Registration Page for alternate payment methods.
CUSTOM TOURS
Custom noshwalks can be booked on weekdays or weekends by alumni groups, trade associations, overseas visitors, conventioneers, employee outings and student organizations—and any other group looking for a unique and fun New York experience. Groups can range from one person to 25.
