NYC Culinary Tour

As you may know, I am total culinary tour believer.  You get a great deal for your money, eat lots, and hear history.  I will try a culinary tour in every new "foodie" city I visit.  This tour had us in the Chelsea Market and Meatpacking district.  Since we had seen Greenwich village, SOHO, the financial district, WTC, and Broadway I wanted a different area of the city.

Chelsea Market is over a million square feet and used to be the Nabisco factory

First stop was a little bakery where we enjoyed a mini red velvet cupcake

Next stop was fresh chocolate milk right out of the cow!

finally, a group photo!!

Grilled cheese

We had a 12 minute break so Neil and I went to the raw oyster bar.  You could choose from 15 different types of raw oysters all with different flavors and levels of salinity.

Tuck's sage and sausage rolls

After the market, we headed up to the Highline (an old train track that was made into a park).

I had to wear tennis shoes because my feet were so blistered.
