Great Food Tasting Experience

We spent two hours discovering the history of the Municipal Market. Ariel, our tour guide, gave us a thorough history and tour of the market with a tasting of local market fare. It was delicious! I make my travel plans based upon food destinations and this tour was definitely worthwhile and I highly recommend this for anyone interested in a food tasting of Atlanta soul food. The tour highlight was a biscuit making session. This turned out to be a very fun experience and the biscuits turned out beautifully.

Biscuit making blast!

This activity was so much more than we expected! We learned a lot of history, got to try 3 different small plates of food, and we learned how to make exceptional biscuits! Our tour guide was a wealth of information, wonderfully engaging, funny, and inclusive. This was a super fun event to do with your partner, family, or friends!
