Minneapolis Food Tour - Walking
Overview
On this walking food tour you'll get a taste of what makes Minneapolis so special. Because all our local spots are connected by skyway, we'll never be rained (or snowed) out. Our small groups of only 6-8 people set us apart. You will feel like you're dining out with friends.
These five restaurants were chosen because they tell a story of Minneapolis. It's a food story full of character(s): immigrants, community partners, new visionaries, and the tried and true. They believe "wealth is built at the table, " and "everyone deserves a good meal." They make "the food you grew up with, " and "pay attention to the seasons and support local organic farms." Simply put, they make "damn good food."
Whether you're just passing through or live in the area, join us for this 2-3 hour food journey, and savor what it's all about!
PLEASE NOTE: There will be no dietary accommodations. Peanuts are ground on the premises of one venue.
(Please wear comfortable shoes and bring a bottle of water.)

Jessica, from Buen Viaje Tours, took us from one yummy culinary snack spot to another as we explored the marvelous Minneapolis skyway system under her guidance. This tour is not weather dependent, which is the whole reason for the skyway system. It was a hot day but we got to admire the skies and cityscapes without stepping outside (except for the initial stop at Hells Kitchen, which was an easy-to-find meeting place). Jessica picked a variety of international food venues. It was a unique experience in spite of the fact that everyone in the group had lived in the Twin Cities for years. We felt we were seeing Minneapolis with new eyes. I highly recommend this tour..8hmu541
