The food was amazing! Everything was delicious!
Owen was a great tour guide! He met my husband and I across from the famous St. George church and handled getting all these delicious foods to us. The Chinese pancakes with both soft eggs and crunchy wafers was delicious. The pork stuff hamburger with buns with layers like a croissant was amazing. The steamed rice wrap with morsels of shrimp and pork had the best sauce. No maybe the fried chicken (Yes, Chinese fried chicken!) Had the best sauce. And then amazing hand-made dumplings! Everything was delicious. And Owen set us up at a table at each place with each food, talked with us about the origins of the food and the overlaps in Asian cuisine and showed us how to eat each thing. You really don't need to eat at all before this tour - so much food and not heavy food. We ate as much as we could, about 1/2 of each thing served, then brought the leftovers home.
We also visited a couple of really cool Asian markets and talked about the sights along Main Street and the side streets as we walked along. 100% yummiest food tour I've been on!

Wow wow wow - yo quote Owen, this was one yummy tour! I have always been afraid to enter Flushing restaurants with mostly Mandarin menus, I felt like a giant treasure chest was unlocked. Thanks for the wonderful experience!

Had a great time celebrating my fiances birthday on this food tour! Come hungry! The food was great and Owen was knowledgeable and fun. I definitely recommend this tour for those looking for a fun way to explore the local culture!

Three of us took Owen’s food tour in Flushing’s Chinatown and it was fantastic! Owen is a fun, enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide. We went to five locations (none of which would we have found on our own!) and had excellent dishes at each one. Definitely recommend Owen and his tour!

A fantastic experience. As someone whose been a New York tour guide for years and does a tour through the Manhattan Chinatown, Owen impressed me both with knowledge of China and Chinese American history and his ability to convey it in way that was both interesting and engaging.
Even if you're just there for the food and not the history, Own's restaurant picks were top notch and really gave me a varied and unique experience of Chinese cuisine. Plus, there was enough leftover for a few meals the next day.
I've been on a lot of tours over my 5 years as a tour guide and it doesn't get much better then this.
Highly Recommended.

Let me start off with saying that the communications from Owen was amazing. He sent several messages and a picture so we would know who to look for. I was late (train delays) and he patiently waited for me.
His knowledge of Flushing was vast as well as his awesome stories about Chinese history. We ate so much food and had plenty to take home. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn about the biggest Chinatown in the WORLD!

We had a great time with Owen and the group. We had plenty of food, which was from various regions throughout China and Taiwan. It was absolutely delicious and Owen explained interesting facts about the food, its origins as well as the history of Chinatown in Queens. I would definitely recommend a tour with Owen. Thank you Owen for the tour.

Owen was an excellent guide through the history and food of Flushing. Having him there to open the door into the places you always wanted to try but wouldn't have the first clue as to how, or what, to order is liberating. We look forward to going back to explore the delicious options on our own.

A great, great tour. Six delicious tastings in Flushing, the largest Chinese popuation in the US. Much less touristy than Chinatown in Manhattan. Owen is a professonal tour guide and, having grown up in China, has many stories to tell. Don't miss out.
