Our tour guide Dash was wonderful!! He shared a lot of history, took us to the best spots for each food item and took us on the train as a surprise. I highly recommend this tour if you are looking for something to do for a couple hours.
Upbeat, fun, and yummy!

Five of us arrived three minutes late for 1:00 food tour. They were gone and no where in sight. Despite having my phone number and email address, we received no notices asking for our wherabouts. We learned later that the company’s proper protocol is to wait 10 minutes. When we called the number we were given we were scolded by the first person. We called back and the second gentleman was much more sympathetic and rightfully shocked at what happened. Though I am in the process of receiving a refund our day in Chicago was ruined.
One of the best food...

One of the best food tours we’ve been on in the U.S.! Chicago Dave knows his city and its food well and had the perfect balance of seeing things, hearing about the history, and of course eating some amazing Chicago delicacies. My only advice - there is a lot of food, so eat a small breakfast or be prepared to have leftovers for dinner!
