Given that Halloween is the ultimate day for all things candy, we’re shining a light on one of NYC’s most iconic spots: Economy Candy 🍭

Did you know Economy Candy has been a fixture on the Lower East Side since 1937? Originally a shoe store, the family behind it decided to pivot when they realized the candy they were occasionally selling was outselling the footwear.

Now, it’s home to over 2,000 different types of sweets, from rare vintage finds to homemade treats. 🍬

We stop by Economy Candy on our Lower East Side food tour, where we explore the rich layers of history and local flavor in this part of town.

Have you visited? Which is your go-to candy?

When you visit Paris, trying pastries is a must—but where do you start? With so many options, a little guidance goes a long way. While there are countless amazing spots, here are a few of our top favorites (in no particular order):

🩷 Gosselin — A local pastry shop and bakery that churns out goodies all day long, from croissants to sandwiches to eclairs, and much more.

🩷 Jean-Paul Hévin — Jean-Paul Hévin is a “Meilleur Ouvrier de France”, which is the cream of the crop in terms of pastry chef nominations. Everything is divine here, but our favorites might be the macarons!

🩷 Arnaud Larher — Award winning pastry chef (pâtissier) and chocolatier with so many decadent things to try. Our vote is for the caramel eclair.

🩷 Stohrer — The oldest patisserie in Paris, established in 1730. Come for the macarons, stay for the canelés!

🩷 Comptoir du Commerce — Incredible crêpes…which aren’t technically a pastry, but nonetheless deserves a spot on our list.

P.S.: If you love pastries, then our Paris Pastry & Chocolate Tour is calling your name! 🍫

And if you’re craving more: Our Paris Ultimate Food Tour and Montmartre Like a Local Food Tour also let you savor some Parisian sweets, alongside plenty of other delicious French bites.

When you visit Italy, you’ll undoubtedly enjoy some of the best pizza and pasta of your life! 🍝 But what else should you indulge in? To truly eat like a local, don’t miss these must-try things:

1. Supplì: A Roman favorite, these are fried rice balls filled with gooey mozzarella and sauce, often enjoyed as a delicious street food snack.

2. Fried Jewish artichokes or fried zucchini flowers: Experience a bite of Roman cuisine with deep-fried artichokes (carciofi alla giudia) or delicate zucchini flowers.

3. Craft beer: While Italy is famous for its exceptional wine, the craft beer scene is also thriving! Explore unique local brews that beautifully complement Italian cuisine and showcase regional flavors.

4. Spritz: This refreshing aperitif, made with Prosecco, Aperol (or Campari), and soda water, is the perfect drink to enjoy in Rome—if we do say so ourselves!

5. Aperitivo: Dive into the Italian tradition of pre-dinner drinks. Sip on wine or cocktails while nibbling on tasty small bites like olives, cheeses, and cured meats. It’s the perfect way to kick off your evening.

6. Cod fish: Don’t miss baccalà (salted cod), a favorite in various regions, especially during festive occasions. Enjoy it fried, stewed, in salads, or even on its own for a quick bite to go!

Fall is here, and with it comes the season’s favorite flavors—apple, pumpkin, and all the cozy autumn delights taking center stage. 🍁

Boston is the perfect spot to visit during fall, with its stunning foliage and abundance of seasonal treats.

On our Ultimate Boston Food Tour, we feature delicious apple treats from a local favorite, Red Apple Farm🍎. This family-owned, fourth-generation farm has been thriving since its founding in 1912.

Their farm in Phillipston, MA, is home to the oldest commercially planted McIntosh apple tree, which, over 100 years later, still bears fruit!

Whether you visit their stall at the Boston Public Market, the farm in Phillipston, or Wachusett Mountain, you can try their wide array of products (and not just during the fall season!), including regular and hard cider, donuts, fudge, caramel, kettle corn, and much more.

Have you ever been to the San Gennaro Festival in Little Italy?

In 2024, the festival will mark its 98th anniversary—it all began back in 1926!

Held annually for 11 days in mid-September, the festival celebrates San Gennaro, the patron saint of Naples.

What started as a one-day religious event has grown into a lively street festival, featuring a traditional procession where a statue of the saint is carried through the iconic Mulberry Street in the heart of Little Italy.

It’s also a food lover’s dream, with vendors serving up Italian-American classics like sausage and pepper sandwiches, zeppole, cannoli, pizza, and so much more.

If you're in NYC this weekend, don’t miss the chance to experience this festive tradition before it wraps up!

Bordeaux is often called “Little Paris,” but what makes this city stand out on its own? First and foremost: Wine. As one of the world’s most renowned wine regions, Bordeaux is a must-visit for wine lovers. 🍷 But there's more to Bordeaux than just wine. The city is also famous for its sweet treats, quintessential to the region—like canelé and dune blanches—along with charcuterie, seafood, and other local fares. If you're visiting France and want to explore beyond Paris, Bordeaux is the perfect starting point. It’s a charming, foodie-friendly city, just the right size, and close to the coast.

When you think of Spain you probably think of Sangria (among some other things). But there’s another drink that’s even more popular: Tinto de Verano (or, “summer wine”). This drink is less complicated to make than sangria, but just as delicious. And despite its summer name, it’s enjoyed all year around.

Join The Devour Movement!

Since the beginning, our mission was simple: to connect curious travelers with local food and people in a way that helps culture thrive.

Why? Because our cities are changing at an alarming rate. We’re seeing them blend together as family-run businesses and iconic places continue to disappear. And with them we lose the stories, recipes and soul that makes each place unique.

Travel is about immersing yourself in local culture. And there’s no better way to do that than through food! Food brings people together, no matter where you’re from or what language you speak.

We crave food and travel experiences with a true sense of place. We fear a world where you can’t tell the difference between Paris and Barcelona. Our hearts jump at the adventure of a tapas crawl in historic Madrid, and at our first taste of a Parisian baguette. These are the moments we feel truly connected to the soul of a destination, and not a watered-down version of it. You can find all of our food tours and destinations at https://devourtours.com/ Come and join us!
