Rejseplan
Denne 4-timers tur ridser finer og kommer ud over Chinatowns facade til at smage sine bedste skatte! Besøg syv madlavning stop og udforske Chinatowns historie og dens lokale tegn. Efter møde på Place d'Armes i Old Montreal, vil din guide give et kort overblik over Montreals historie. Så tag en kort gåtur til Chinatown. Hvis der er børn i rejsegruppen, stopper du ved vandhave på den kinesiske Holiday Inn. Gå til den største kinesiske købmand i Chinatown, lær om historien og tag dig tid til at kigge rundt og handle. Bagefter kan du nyde en Bahn Mi sandwich og lære at lave denne lokale behandler. Nyd derefter en hurtig bid af szechuan, Dongbei og Hunan mad, mens du smager lidt sprød svinekød, grill svinekød og and. Så følg din guide til en klassisk Hong Kong stil dimsum. Spis en formue cookie og lær om den ældste forretning i Chinatown, der gør dem! Bagefter smag kinesiske kager på et kantonesisk bageri, prøv nogle berømte drage skæg slik og afslut med høj kvalitet te fra et Montreal baseret selskab med gårde i det sydlige Kina. Du bliver meget fuld i slutningen af denne tur. Træd ind i en anden verden, som du måske aldrig har fundet på egen hånd!

Great time! Fun group of people and excellent food. We experienced a lot of different types of food in Chinatown.
Yay! Thanks so much Victor. So nice to have you on the tour. You were troopers in the cold. Luckily the restaurants were cozy with delicious food! I appreciate the review! All the best!
Fun time- Great tour! Tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and kind. A good amount of food, we were definitely full :)
Thanks Lisa. :) I'm glad you enjoyed it. All the best.
Excellent tour guide, with extensive knowledge of the city's history, but also culinary details and culture. This food tour isn't just about food, it's about Chinatown's culture and history first, with food to pair with this information. It's a great mix should you like both walking tours and food tours. There is a good quantity of food, in 3 main sit-down locations + a few bites while walking, but it's mainly in the second part of the tour, the first is mainly a historical/cultural walking tour. This is different from most food tours I've been on, so to be noted if you want food, food, food and only food. For me, it was a super balance, so I'm super happy!
Thanks Jennifer! It means a lot from someone so well-travelled and who has toured so extensively!! It also means a lot on a day when all the participants were Montrealers!!! Thanks for coming and reviewing!!
Amazing tour! Food stops were phenomenal and the history added a deeper understanding of the area I had never explored even though my family is still in the area!
Thank you Marielle! I appreciate the great review!
Melissa was a fantastic guide. Her love of Montreal, it’s history and the knowledge of Chinese food and traditions was exceptional. Melissa’s enthusiasm was contagious. Lots of great food, too much by the end. The walk has lots of stops for food, and Melissa was conscious to stop and talk with benches close by, so suitable for people that are not able to walk very far. Best food tour yet.
Wow! Thank you so much for the detailed stellar review Susan. Thank you for taking the time and coming on the tour! Maybe I’ll see you on another one?
The food was so o o good lots of variety and Melissa was an excellent guide. Don't miss this fantastic tour!!!
Thanks so much Susan! I appreciate it! I feel lucky to get to be your guide on our Jewish Food Tour next, which you’ll find is totally different!
Going to a city where you don’t know anyone and not sure what to do so you don’t waste your time, it was nice to have a tour guide like Mélissa. Her smile was so inviting and the tour was amazing. Combining the history and food of Chinatown made it even more special. You got a glimpse into the past, present and future.
Thanks Rene! You and TC were fun, engaged and brought a lot of humour. It was great having you! Thanks for the envelope too. 😉
We toured China town and got a history of it and surrounding areas- we had fantastic food and tried things that I never would have known about. Our guide was charming and informative - the pace was perfect, and we had frequent breaks so it was not too taxing.
Ha! I’m glad you liked it and we’re full at the end of it. You were very pleasant to have on the tour. Glad you tried new things! Thanks for writing a review
We saw things that we never would have discovered on our own. Melissa is a great guide with insights on the history and current events.
Thanks so much! I appreciate that! I try my best!
The Chinese market...would have loved to spend more time there. I would suggest to have the visit at the market at the end of the tour, that way there would be no need to carry our produce etc. for the entire tour.
Interesting idea. I’ll think about it. Thanks for the feedback
