Serious question, has anyone else had a street food tour completely change how they see their own city?
I was on a guided tour in my local downtown area last week, and it dawned on me that I've been ignoring the best part of my neighborhood for years. The tour highlighted three immigrant-owned carts on side streets I always avoided, each with stories way deeper than just the food. Like this Cambodian noodle stall run by a couple who've been there since the 90s, sharing recipes from their hometown. Now I realize these tours aren't just eating, they're like live history lessons you can taste.
