I was hoping for a lot more from this tour based off the reviews and description about learning about the vendors / food sourcing but this tour with George? Fell a bit flat. I was hoping there’d be inquiries into what kind of food we were interested in and more about the diff stalls and vendors but it was a standard fare of 4 items and 2 pub stops. We never even learned the name of the 3rd food…”
