Just did the Flushing food tour - it was AMAZING!

I just got back from the NYC Flushing: Chinatown Hidden Gems Food Tasting and Walking Tour and wow, what an experience! The Jianbing was one of the best things I’ve ever tasted, and our guide was super knowledgeable about the history of each dish. We tried so many different foods and even got a bubble tea at the end! Highly recommend this to anyone who wants a deep dive into authentic Chinese cuisine. It’s perfect for groups, too!

Thinking of gifting the NYC Flushing food tour - thoughts?

I’m considering gifting the Flushing food tour to my brother who’s a huge food lover. Has anyone done it? What was your favorite dish? He loves spicy food, so hoping there will be some options for him! Any tips on what to expect?
