NYC Street Food, Gangs & Immigration with a Retired NYPD Guide

Explore New York’s street food, immigrant heritage, and gang history with a retired NYPD officer. Walk through the Lower East Side, Chinatown, and Little Italy, enjoying six tastings—from Dominican pastelillos and Chinese dumplings to Jewish knishes and Italian cannoli. Between bites, hear stories of the Yiddish Black Hand, neighborhood gangs, and Chinatown’s infamous “Bloody Angle.” This 2-hour experience brings together local flavors, historic streets, and a retired officer’s perspective.
