We all know that the bill on a dinner out in New York can often accidentally run up to the $50 mark, but when was the last time that amount bought you a meal from not one, but seven different restaurants? This Saturday and Sunday at 11:30am and 3pm, Rum and Blackbird Tasting Tours is giving you just that chance (for $49 to be exact) and for your money you’ll be treated to a three-hour, seven-stop culinary tour of Hell’s Kitchen, a neighborhood all too often reserved for pre-theatre dinners and under-appreciated for its plethora of worthy dining establishments.
Stops along the two-mile path include La Rosita, Gazala Place, Empanada Mama, Island Burgers & Shakes, Poseidon Bakery, Biscotti di Vecchio, and City Dish favorite Xie Xie. At each restaurant, participants will get to pick the brains of owners and chefs and get a much more detailed insight into the food they’re sampling than they would had they simply ordered it off the menu. Walks between restaurants will be just as educational, as Rum and Blackbird’s tour guides are well versed in the neighborhood’s history, culinary and otherwise.
Don’t worry if you can’t make it right away though. This is just the debut of an ongoing series of food walking tours that extend through the end of the month. But if you’re hungry for food and adventure this weekend, here’s a unique opportunity to get your fill of both!
