Description
from Old Pasadena Food Tasting Walking Tour
This tour explores the charming history, folklore, and architecture of Old Pasadena, a National Register Historic District, which was once just a land of orange groves. Colorful alleys, hidden courtyards, and secret thru-ways spice up our path, as we seek out spectacular ethnic eateries and sweet havens for tastings. Enjoy fascinating stories behind the food which are sure to entertain and delight.
Whenever possible, we'll be met and hosted by our special merchants who proudly share their incredible offerings with us. The food samples along the way are filling enough so that for most people lunch or dinner afterward is not necessary.
