Come experience the charming history, architecture and folklore of Old Pasadena while feasting upon culinary delights from neighborhood eateries.
The
Melting Pot Food Tour tradition is to acquaint guests with
extraordinarily delicious treasures that one may not typically find or
taste on their own. The Old Pasadena tasting tour is destined to
become a true signature of this, and promises a myriad of flavors that
are both unforgettable and habit-worthy. The fascinating stories behind
the foods, and this historic district that was once only a sunny land
of orange groves, are guaranteed to entertain and delight.
Colorful alleys and
secret thru-ways will spice up our path as we seek out spectacular
ethnic eateries and sweets havens for tastings including an authentic Mexican tortas cafe, a rare Nepalese-Tibetan restaurant, and an exquisite chocolate shop. Also included is the
pleasure of a sensory experience at a handmade soap kitchen.
The
tour lasts approximately 3 hours and covers
about 1 1/4 miles over
flat terrain. The
food samples along the way are enough so that for
most people lunch or dinner afterwards is not
necessary. Tours are limited to 15
people and are
expected to sell out quickly.
