Description

Experience the flavors of Southern California on this guided food tour through San Diego’s Historic Gaslamp Quarter. Known for its nightlife, Victorian-era architecture, and diverse dining scene, this district is the perfect backdrop for tasting the city’s culinary treasures.

Led by a local guide, you’ll discover how San Diego’s food culture has been shaped by Mexican, Filipino, and Californian influences while enjoying 6 tastings that reflect the city’s bold and creative flavors.

Your journey begins at the iconic Balboa Theater, where your guide sets the stage for the stories behind San Diego’s historic quarter. From there, you’ll dive into Filipino culture with freshly made lumpia—crispy spring rolls with flavorful fillings that showcase one of Southern California’s most important communities.

Next, bite into a juicy California Meltburger, a local favorite with a golden, cheesy twist. Of course, no visit to San Diego would be complete without fish tacos, and you’ll sample a Baja-style taco featuring fresh, perfectly seasoned catch of the day.

As locals do, you’ll pause to savor a specialty coffee, crafted in the California style. Then, get ready for the legendary California Burrito, stuffed with carne asada, French fries, and all the fixings—a true San Diego icon.

Finally, the tour ends with our Secret Dish, a surprise that ties the experience together with one last burst of flavor.

By the end, you’ll have tasted some of San Diego’s most iconic dishes while exploring the rich cultural mix that makes this city one of California’s most exciting foodie destinations.
