Food News from The Lower East Side, NY

As a long-time Manhattan resident, recognized food expert and leader of food tours, I nominate The Lower East Side of Manhattan as the most exciting food neighborhood in all of the five boroughs, and one of the most diverse, lively and rich (in the food sense, of course, not $$) in the U.S.

The LES has it all — old-time food businesses that have been around for 100 years or more (e.g. Russ & Daughters), new artisan retail food businesses of all types — from donuts and ice cream to candy, baked goods and more — to some of the city’s best restaurants (Little Giant, Falai, etc.)

The neighborhood also has some great cheap eats (Cuban Sandwiches) and some of the trendiest night spots around. There are also great bars to please every taste — from cheap beers to exotic fruit infused mojitos.

If you want to taste, learn and see more of this intriguing neighborhood, visit www.cityfoodtours.com and we’ll take you on a tour.
