Chef Stone led us to 11 delicious servings!!! They were quite generous compared to other food tasting tours we have been on. Our group of 12 covered a good distance a a beautiful variety of bites. His insights added entertainment to the walk.

Chef Erik was awesome! The tour was educational with the perfect amount of humor interjected. He was so knowledgeable about food and Seattle. Proud that at 74 I could make the walk. Food bites were awesome as well. A very great choice for us!!!! Thanks Chef Erik!!
