LEARN MOREYOUR GUIDE TO CHINATOWN
Dumplings, Pork Buns & Card Tricks
$37 for a 1.5hr tour of Chinatown’s hidden gems w/ NYT-acclaimed “Foodie Magician”
SOLD OUT
Though both entrance their patrons, food and magic don’t always get along, mostly because it is damn hard to stew a rabbit in a top hat. For smoothly integrated sleight-of-hand and stuffing-of-belly, grab a pass to The Insider’s Guide to Chinatown walking tour, led by a food blogger/wizard known as The Foodie Magician. The Magician -- who normally awes eaters tableside in spots like Daniel & Lure Fishbar -- will take the intimidating guesswork out of eating the neighborhood by bringing you to his favorite Sino spots for a different traditional bite, from dumplings & scallion pancakes at Vanessa’s, to Mei Li Wah Bakery’s steamed pork buns, which Willie Beamen eats after long nights spent keepin’ the ladies screamin’.
Along the way, TFM’ll perform card tricks & tell anecdotes that’ll help you see Chinatown through his Sriracha-stained eyes. You can experience this 1.5-2hr tour one of two ways: a normally $80 general admission pass that gets you a snack at each resto; or the VIP pass, which generally goes for $120 and also snags a post-tour family-style dinner at the dude’s favorite Malaysian resto, sure to be magically delicious.
