Fun Food Tour

We had a great time with Jody on our Melting Pot food tour of Pasadena! Jody was very knowledgeable about the local food scene, taking us to the best local, family owned businesses in the area. We had a wonderful time exploring old Pasadena while exploring Venezuelan, Lebanese, Indian, Mexican, and other excellent restaurants. Bring your appetite!

LA Food Tour Review

The tour had a nice mix of Pasadena history and great food places to eat. Our guide, Nick, was terrific. He was funny, knowledgeable and because he grew up in the area seemed to have a great rapport with the proprietors of the places we went into. I'd definitely do another tour with this company!

My friend, Damien and I really enjoyed the tour and all the little tidbits provided to us by our tour guide. The food was great and there was a lot of it especially at the last thai restaurant. I would do it again and recommend the experience to my other friends.

Had a wonderful time on this food tour. Our guide, Summer, was excellent! She gave us great information about Pasadena, the food we were tasting and tips about other restaurants in the area. She even gave my husband a birthday card! We would highly recommend this tour.

This food tour was very much worth the money. The pacing was good and we got a good amount of culture and information along with the food. I have done a couple of other food walks before through other agencies and this one was by far the best.
