ITALIAN FOOD TOUR OF NEW YORK ITINERARY
- Start at La Bella Ferrara, the delighting denizens of Little Italy since the late 1800s, and get some of its Italian Rainbow cookies.
- Then, visit the family-owned Alleva Dairy where more than 4,000 pounds of fresh mozzarella prosciutto and rice balls you'll ever taste.
- Then, go to the oldest pizzeria in America and see a 106-year-old coal oven at Lombardi's Pizza. America’s oldest pizzeria! Their 117-year-old coal oven still impresses locals, tourists, and international foodies alike. For that smoky crust and San Marzano tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella and basil. We still love it, day-in and day-out.
