Summary:
Had a great food tour with Anna & a couple of Brits. We went to small places on back streets that we never would have found by ourselves. The food was excellent. Anna was really on top of it & a lot of fun. we liked Why Not enough to return for dinner 2 nights later—we dropped Anna’s name & got a table right off with very good service.
To top it off I even receive a hug from Huggie Bear himself—ask her about it.

The food was excellent and gave us the opportunity to try things we may not have done on our own. Our guide, Anna, was informative and fun. She took us to out of the way places and was a mine of information. The places we visited were friendly and the food delicious. we would highly recommend this tour x
