As research started for this tour, it was all about food. Where were the best places to eat in York in the most unsuspected places? I then got to know the people behind the foodie stops and the restaurants and I was blown away. Blown away by their passion, their perseverance, their talent, the madness of their trade, the unicity of their offer.

I love bringing you to some of York's best (and most secret) restaurants, having a chat, a laugh, plenty to eat. To this day, I am amazed at everything these 'food entrepreneurs' bring to the table and that is why the Hidden Gems Food Crawl of York exists.

Delicious! Really informative, tasty & enjoyable. We were lucky to have mild weather for the time of year and despite the Christmas market, Marion showed us around some really special locations where we we sampled some of the sweet, sour (dough!), savoury and spicy delights York has to offer.
