Vinegar as an ice cream chaser - don't knock it till you try it! |
Santa Cruz, CA
When ideal weather and my insatiable appetite collide, I am unstoppable.
Whether you're a tourist like me always looking for new ways to feed my face, or a long-time resident curious about everything Santa Cruz has to offer, this culinary adventure won't disappoint. Unlike some food tours that drag you from restaurant to restaurant only to sample and nibble, with little else to see or do in between, the Santa Cruz Food Tour is a true gem.
Bring your appetite - and comfortable shoes. Your 3.5 excursion is peppered with locally owned and award-winning spots offering scrumptious American and international fare, sweet treats, and frothy beverages...and it doesn't stop there! Between caramelized onion-laden gourmet pizzas on homemade crusts and organic cupcakes using locally sourced ingredients, you'll learn about the founding of Santa Cruz and its first settlers. Enjoy a waffle cone from the only shop in town that makes their ice cream completely from scratch as you embark on a fascinating lesson in local architecture.
Never done shots of olive oil? Take this tour. Never tried a balsamic vinegar soda? Take this tour. Never tasted blood orange anything? TAKE THIS TOUR!
No need for dinner plans. The leisurely 1.8 mile trek is hardly enough cardio to work up another appetite. However, I do admit to revisiting the ice cream shop later that evening for one last treat. After all, the tour provided additional discounts and coupons to all attendees. I didn't want to seem rude!
