Onward and upward!<\/p>\n

I resumed Exploring Eastern European Food in Little Odessa<\/em> about a month ago (a big thank you to all my guests!) and now Ethnic Eats in Elmhurst<\/em> is joining the lineup; Flushing and Bay Ridge are just around the corner.<\/p>\n

Ethnojunkets FAQ:<\/h4>\n

 
\nQ: What\u2019s an ethnojunket anyway?
\nA: An ethnojunket is a food-focused walking tour through one of New York City\u2019s many ethnic enclaves; my mission is to introduce you to some delicious, accessible, international treats that you\u2019ve never tasted but soon will never be able to live without.<\/p>\n

Q: Which neighborhoods do you cover?
\nA: My most popular tours are described on the ethnojunkets<\/a> page but there are always new ones in the works. For the time being, I’m only scheduling Little Odessa and Elmhurst.<\/p>\n

Q: When is your next ethnojunket to [fill in the blank: Elmhurst, Little Odessa, Flushing, Little Levant, etc.]?<\/em>
\nA: Any day you\u2019d like to go! <\/strong>Simply send me a note in the \u201cLeave a Reply\u201d section below or write to me directly at rich[at]ethnojunkie[dot]com and tell me when you\u2019d like to experience a food adventure and which ethnojunket you\u2019re interested in \u2013 I\u2019ll bet we can find a mutually convenient day! (Pro Tip: Check the weather in advance for the day you’re interested in to facilitate making your choice; we spend a lot of time outdoors!)<\/p>\n

Q: I\u2019ve seen some tours that are scheduled in advance for particular dates. Do you do that?
\nA: Yes, in a way. When someone books a tour (unless it\u2019s a private tour) it\u2019s always fun to add a few more adventurous eaters to the group \u2013 not to mention the fact that we get the opportunity to taste more dishes when we have more people (although I do like to keep the group size small). You can see if there are any openings available in the \u201cNow Boarding\u201d<\/a> section of the ethnojunkets page. Subscribers always get email notifications about these.<\/p>\n

Q: What will we be eating in Elmhurst?
\nA: We cover a lot of geography on our Ethnic Eats in Elmhurst<\/em> adventure! We\u2019ll savor goodies from Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Nepal, Bangladesh, Taiwan, Japan, Hong Kong, the Philippines, and elsewhere in Southeast Asia and parts of China. And if you\u2019re into cooking, we can explore a large Pan-Asian supermarket along the way.<\/p>\n

Here are just a few<\/em> of the delicacies we usually enjoy on this ethnojunket. (Not that I’m trying to tempt you to sign up! \ud83d\ude09)<\/p>\n
