Flavorfully Outstanding and Unique - I went on this tour with a buddy of mine and we had a fantastic time venturing north outside of Boston in Somerville. This type of tour is very engaging due to the smaller group size and the easygoing nature of our guide Adam. The amount of detail & knowledge provided was easy to understand and not overwhelming throughout the tour. Every food spot part of this tour was unbelievable and I would genuinely go back to each spot individually on separate occasions. The Nepalese Momos and Loaded Samosas were extremely flavorful and eye-opening. I don't venture out enough when it comes to trying these type of spots that are small/local businesses, but after experiencing this tour, I definitely would like to get out there more. The tacos and poutine were also fantastic. I highly recommend this tour for all parties that are interested in experiencing different sides to Boston and want to switch things up a bit from the "clam chowdah, lobstah rolls, and seafood boils" the city is apparently known for. Outstanding pacing, portion, and piquancy.
