15 Years Strong — Our #1 Food and Shopping Tour!
Led by South Philly native Chef Jacquie, this Italian Market food tour blends tastings with shopping. Sample nonna-style pizza from Angelo’s Pizzeria, enjoy a classic roast pork sandwich from the chef who beat Bobby Flay, and visit Di Bruno Bros. Bottle Shop, where you can purchase wine or beer to pair with artisanal bites.
Stroll through the market and visit boutique food shops and taste artisanal cheeses and salumi, authentic balsamic vinegars and extra virgin olive oils, and cookbook gems at Philly’s only cookbook store – our guests get exclusive discounts at select shops. Explore handcrafted culinary treasures and unforgettable cannoli at the iconic Isgro’s Pastries – so bring your shopping list, because you’ll want to take home more than memories.

I look forward to sharing this food experience with you!
Growing up in this neighborhood, meant a lot to me. The people, the history, and the businesses—it’s all part of who I am, and I’m proud to share that with you.
My food tour journey started years ago when I was in culinary school, and I’ll never forget the excitement of my first food tour in France. The food was delicious, but most of all, it was the people I met which made it a memorable experience for me.
That’s the feeling I want to pass on to you when we explore Philly’s culinary scene together.
When you come on my tour, you’ll see Philly in a way that’s authentic and full of life. I’m here to make sure you have a great time and walk away with stories of your own.
Let’s go explore,
