| Famous for its tree-lined cobblestone streets, historic buildings and creative Bohemian residents, Greenwich Village is also a wonderful area for a food-centered walking tour. |
South of Washington Square Park, the Village is still steeped in its ethnic Italian origins although the peak was at the beginning of the century. The area around Bleecker Street remains the heart of this neighborhood. |
| Our tour begins at a charming
Italian caffe where we absorb the atmosphere over a cappuccino.
Then we'll stroll through the charming West Village. Stops
include the smallest house in Manhattan, homes of famous writers, a
historic theater, a hidden private courtyard, and a Prohibition-era
speakeasy. Nearby is a lattaccini where
we will taste the best freshly made mozzarella this side of Naples. On Bleecker Street, where traditional Italian food stores are still thriving, we will have tastings at a famous cheese store, pork store and bakery. Lunch is at a charming local vinoteca. |
