Our guide Ross was super informative and very accommodating! The food was delicious at all the places we visited!
We had a great afternoon learning about the West village and tasting different foods from the area. Our guide was knowledgeable about the area and gave us background stories of the places we stopped to sample the food. Excellent way to spend an afternoon.
