 New York City is known for its unique neighborhoods, each with a flavor and character of its own. One of the most famous is Greenwich Village, home to artists, intellectuals, and entertainers. It is a treasure trove of gastronomic delights, from Italian joints to new and undiscovered places off the beaten path. We invite you to discover this little corner of New York on a three night culinary getaway with Epiculinary.
Your accommodations are at the Washington
Square Hotel, located in the heart of Greenwich Village. This historic
hotel is but a short stroll from the ethnic delights of Little Italy
and Chinatown. The 165 charming guestrooms offer comfortable lodging
for savvy travelers and the Art Deco-style lobby café is a great
spot for a cup of coffee or people watching. Your cooking lesson
takes place at the Institute of Culinary Education, where your class
choices include Great New York Restaurants' Signature Dishes, Essentials
of Provencal Cooking, or Pasta Workshop. You will also be treated
to a tasting and historical walking tour of the Village, discovering
hidden treasures and local spots few visitors ever find, along with
a tasting tour of Chinatown.
