THE STORY OF
ONE HUNGRY MAN

separator

It really all began in 1977 by sampling the perfect  slice of thin crust New York style pizza.

Meet Todd, Owner and Founder

My first journey to New York City with friends was in the Summer of 1977. I was 15 years old and I had $5.00 in my pocket; enough for a round trip bus ticket, the perfect slice of thin-crust pizza and, quite possibly, the best cannoli I’ve ever eaten. That day ended outside a tiny cafe listening to an elderly man playing a sitar. This food and cultural experience was the beginning of Foods of New York Tours, even though I didn’t realize it at the time.
