    By Deep Culture Travel on October 2, 2016 Eat, Drink, Cook

    An insider cuisine and culture tour of Manhattan’s most vibrant and historic neighborhood, Taste Harlem is the brainchild of Jacqueline Orange, an escapee from the corporate world.

    Welcome to Harlem on a Taste of Harlem Culture & Cuisine Tour

    She and/or her savvy, certified local guides will lead you on a 2- to 4-hour walking-and-bus expedition to casual and fine dining spots, art galleries, landmark architecture, and music venues. Between the generous tastings of soul food, Caribbean cuisine, African fare and more, you’ll learn about Harlem’s vivid history and hidden neighborhoods, and meet some of the district’s most fascinating residents.

    “Walking though the Harlem neighborhoods, we saw how connected the guides are by all the people greeting them––and the welcome and friendliness extended to our group.”

    “Queen of Soul Food” Sylvia Woods holds forth at her legendary eatery, Sylvia’s Restaurant, and the legendary Samuel Hargress is often found at his jazz, blues and R&B club, Paris Blues.
