Delicious, authentic, and fun! - My husband and I loved our tour with Owen. He was so friendly and knowledgeable! Every food spot was delicious, and he even found me vegetarian options. We really enjoyed learning about the history of the Chinese community in Flushing and it was awesome the way he introduced us to foods originating from all over China. Don’t hesitate to take this tour—it’s an easy subway ride to get there from Manhattan!

Asian food tour of Flushing Queens - We didn't know what to expect and we were definitely surprised. I was not aware how large this Chinatown was and how many restaurants there were. Owen was very knowledgeable and took us to restaurants that made authentic Chinese food. There were many vegetarian and seafood options available and all are healthy

Tastiest foodie snacks of ASIAN Culture🌏 - This foodie tour was my all time favorite. With an informative tour guide, to the navigation around Flushing, to the warm welcome and comfort level and hospitality offered was a 5/5. Get to FLUSING, NY, to experience the most authentic cuisine across anywhere else in NYC. A little bit of this and a little bit of that! So much food we had a snack bag of our leftovers to bring back for the road in the morning heading back to Tennessee.

A Flushing Foodie Adventure - We had an incredible time on the Flavors of Flushing tour with Owen! This tour is a must-do for anyone looking to experience the true heart of New York City's diverse culinary scene. Owen's passion for the neighborhood is infectious, and his knowledge of the area's history and culture is impressive. The food was absolutely amazing! We sampled five different dishes with distinct regional origins, and each one was a flavor explosion. Learning about the different food cultures and why certain people gravitate towards specific dishes was fascinating. If you're tired of the typical NYC tourist spots, venture out to Flushing and immerse yourself in this vibrant community. Owen's tour is the perfect way to explore this hidden gem and discover a whole new side of the city. Highly recommend!

The Urban Passer Knows Flushing! - My organization hosted a staff engagement event and booked Owen Tan to be our tour guide. The “Urban Passer“ did not disappoint. We had a fairly large group and he managed us thoughtfully and with care. He took us to some incredible places in Flushing and shared fun facts and historical information about the neighborhood and community members. It was the perfect blend of education, fun, and great tasting food. I highly recommend this tour whether you’re visiting New York or even a local! He was also super accommodating to dietary restrictions.
