Toronto’s First Food Tour: Taste the World in Kensington Market

Welcome to Tasty Tours, Toronto’s first food tour company and your passport to the flavours and stories of Kensington Market! Nestled in the heart of Toronto, this eclectic neighborhood and National Historic Site is home to a diverse community hailing from every corner of the world. What makes Kensington so special? As the first and oldest food tour in Kensington Market, no one else can show you Kensington like we can. In one lunch, we will travel: 1. Around the world, locally – we’ll sample a variety of cuisine from various cultures in the multi-cultural enclave of Kensington Market. 2. Through time – we’ll trace the history of the market weaved through the stories of the stores we visit. 3. Through perspectives – we’ve got the insider’s edge, from special foods made just for our group, to secret photo spots in the market. IMPORTANT! Please send a message if you have any questions!

Helpful Notes & Tips
– Come with an appetite (we strongly recommend skipping breakfast or having only a light snack) as there is enough food to substitute lunch. Sample sizes vary from store to store (from nibbles to large portions), but at the end of the tour most people will feel full.
– We highly recommend bringing your own reusable water bottle to keep yourself hydrated. If you choose not to, there are always plenty of options to purchase bottled water during the tour.
– Wear comfortable walking shoes. There is a 2 – 5min walk between stops.
– The end point is a 5min walk from the start point.
– We are a food tour and not a historical tour, so expect a healthy mix of information but leaning more towards food history
– We mainly visit small, local stores, and Kensington Market is a popular local hangout, so it may get a little crowded in some spaces. Because of this, we do not go indoors or sit down at all stores we visit.
– Tours run in all weather conditions. Check the weather forecast beforehand and dress appropriately.
