Our guide Jessica was excellent, very knowledgeable, kind, and pleasant. The reason I gave only 3 stars is that I did not think that the food we tasted was that good.. was very plain and not really enough variety. At the end of the tour I did not feel that we got a chance to try enough different foods considering all the options and choices there are at the market. It’s also kind of pricy. I would not recommend this to my friends.
Dear Dana, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m truly pleased to hear how much you enjoyed your time with Jessica. She’s been with us since 2019 and is one of our shining stars. I’m sorry to hear the food tastings didn’t quite meet your expectations and that the variety felt limited. We appreciate the honest review — it’s been a while since we’ve received a 3-star rating, and it gives us a chance to provide some helpful context for future guests. A note for prospective guests: This tour isn’t for everyone. We feature authentic tastings from 7+ different countries across 5 continents (as of 2026: Canada, Jamaica, Chile, Peru, Japan, Tibet, South Africa, and Sweden). Most dishes are prepared by people from those very countries — immigrant families who brought these precious flavours to Toronto. From Chilean empanadas to Tibetan momos, each bite and sip is a taste of “home” for the families who run these small, family-owned businesses in Kensington Market. We walk through one of the most ethnically diverse neighbourhoods in the world’s most diverse city, and food that’s new or unfamiliar can naturally spark strong opinions. Since 2017, Chopsticks+Forks has proudly hosted this experience. Four of our six stops have been with us since Day 1, and our long-time team — Felicia (since 2018), Jessica and William (since 2019), and myself — are fixtures in the Market. It’s our honour to introduce you to our friends and the flavours that connect them to “home” they left behind. Taste | Learn | Discover Warm regards, Jusep Sim Founder, Chopsticks+Forks
Jessica was The Bomb! She made the whole experience fun, interesting and informative!! Highly recommend her !!!
Nan, "The Bomb" — Jessica may need that printed on a t-shirt now, and honestly, we'd approve the design. Fun, interesting, and informative is the whole assignment, and she nails it every time. Thank you for the enthusiasm; it's contagious!
This is one of the best food tours! Friendly and knowledgeable tour guide, Jess, and outstanding food! Thank you so much!
Neeta, thank you right back! "One of the best" is a big claim in a city with this much competition for your appetite, and we don't take it lightly. Jess brings that warmth to every group, and we're thrilled the food kept pace. Hope to feed you again someday!
Jessica was the consummate tour guide. Homegrown, you could tell she loves what she does. Toronto is such an ecletic city w a smorgasbord of cuisines and cultures. It was truly an international tasting experience.
Linda, "homegrown" is spot on — Jessica's love for this city isn't a script, it's her life, and it shows at every stop. A smorgasbord is exactly what Toronto sets out daily; we just help you find the best seats at the table. Thank you for tasting your way around the world with us!
This tour is a great way to learn the history of Kensington Market and taste some of the amazing international flavors. Felicia was an excellent guide. We highly recommend this opportunity.
Thank you so much for this — capturing both the history and the flavors is exactly what we want guests to walk away with, and Felicia's background as an AGO gallery guide is exactly why she brings that lens to Kensington Market so naturally. So glad the two of you had a great afternoon, and we'd love to welcome you back to Chopsticks+Forks on a future visit to Toronto. — Jusep, Founder, Chopsticks+Forks
Jessica was our guide—-and she was awesome! If you enjoy hole-in-the-wall places, this tour is for you. You hit about 9 different spots, and the walk in between is a full experience of the Kensington Market. A-1 experience—-you won’t be disappointed.
Thank you for such a generous review — and for capturing exactly what we hope every guest feels on the Kensington Market walk. Jessica has a gift for finding the hole-in-the-wall spots most visitors would walk right past, and she's right that the walk between stops is as much the experience as the food itself — that's very much by design. So glad it landed for you, and we'd love to host you again at Chopsticks+Forks next time you're in Toronto. — Jusep, Founder, Chopsticks+Forks
