Easter is almost here, and we always enjoy the activities in North Beach\Little Italy surrounding the holiday. The handmade Easter Eggs at Victoria Pastry are really amazing. On our San Francisco Food Tour of North Beach\Little Italy it is a really fun thing to see. Each Easter Egg is individually handmade and painted. Inside are toys and surprises. Around Thanksgiving and Christmas, they have Gingerbread Houses, each one individually handmade and completely edible. They are pretty large, so that is a lot of gingerbread and candy for anyone to eat. On our San Francisco Food Tours, we love seeing the local food artisans bring out the things that make the neighborhood special. In Chinatown, we see those kinds of special things around the Chinese New Year??s and the Autumn Moon Festival in October. It is so much fun when we find these one our tours of each neighborhoods. At the same time, we always get surprised by local artisans in North Beach\Little Italy and Chinatown who are doing this year-round to make the neighborhoods special. The why we got started in the first place and it is still the driving force between us today, helping to support the local artisans in our neighborhoods that make our neighborhoods and San Francisco a special place. It is also our hope that people will join us on our tours and be inspired to support the local artisans in their own hometown that make where they live special. It is those place that make where you live a great place to live. The places that recognize you, the places that make you feel welcome, the places make your hometown a hometown. It is up all of us to help support and preserve them.
