Chinatown + Kensington Market Food Tour

Treat yourself to a culinary adventure in Toronto’s Chinatown and Kensington Market neighbourhoods. 

Recognized in 2006 as a National Historic Site, the Kensington Market, in the heart of Toronto, has it all; diverse food shops, restaurants,  historical Victorian homes, along with a huge variety of vintage, surplus, and used clothing shops.

Right next door to Kensington Market is Chinatown, first developed in the late 19^th century and now one of the largest Chinatowns in North America. It is one of six Chinatowns in the Greater Toronto Area and a beehive of activity with shops, fruit and vegetable stalls, traditional Chinese herbal medicine dispensaries and of course, lots of great food.
