Taste the Melting Pot of the World in Queens

You’ve heard that New York City is a melting pot, but it’s not fully evident until you get off-the-beaten path and head out to Queens. Jackson Heights is a beautiful neighborhood just 20 minutes from Times Square where you can explore practically the entire world in less than a few hours. Here you will feel the authentic hustle and bustle of New York where real New Yorkers work, shop, and eat. What started off historically as a homogenized Garden City neighborhood has turned into one of the most colorful and diverse neighborhoods in the entire world. Get a peek at the historically preserved architecture while immersing yourself in authentic communities. You’ll devour 8-10 food and drink samples representing diverse communities that reside here, from delectable Colombian pastries to steaming Tibetan dumplings to mind-blowing flavorful Bengali street food to unique and colorful Filipino desserts. Not to mention the best taco you’ve had outside of Mexico!
