7/8-7/12, 2019 | NYC World Tour

In this week of camp:

We roamed all over New York City, sampling cuisines from around the world: Africa, Europe, Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean and the USA. We tried totally new foods, and also stopped for familiar goodies like ice cream, pastries and other treats. We met people from around the world, walked a LOT, and had lots of fun.

DAY 1: USA

We visited the Union Square Greenmarket, Chelsea Market and Gansevoort Market. We tasted farmers market goodies and ate burgers, roasted nuts and other American and NYC classics.

DAY 2: Asia

We visited Chinatown, then we tracked down Vietnamese bahn mi sandwiches, Sri Lankan snacks and a Filipino dessert!

DAY 3: Europe

We ate a Georgian lunch and a French dessert made by a Bangladeshi crepe vendor! We also did some sightseeing and ended the day at Eataly, the midtown Italian megashop.

We had crepes in Washington Square Park, made by this man. Tasty!

DAY 4: THE (Non-USA) AMERICAS

Since we started the week with the USA, we spent this day in the rest of the Americas, sampling Caribbean and Latin foods. (And we stumbled onto some other surprises as well.)

DAY 5: AFRICA

We met Chef Pierre Thiam at his restaurant Teranga in Harlem! And on our way, we took the ferry across the Hudson, visited the Irish Hunger Memorial, and checked out the African art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
