Gilded Age Midtown with Asian Culinary Delights Walking Tour

Did you know that the New York Public Library Main Branch is a prime example of Gilded Age architecture, and Grand Central Terminal is widely regarded as a quintessential Gilded Age building?

While almost all the interiors of the Fifth Avenue Gilded Age mansions are off-limits, this tour takes you inside these two magnificent New York City icons. We’ll also stop by the opulent J.P. Morgan House (now the Morgan Library & Museum), the grand Joseph Raphael De Lamar House (now the Polish Consulate General), and the distinctive James F.D. Lanier House (now for sale at $17.5 million).

As we stroll along these institutions and mansions, feeling their awe, we’ll also sample flavors that break every old law of Gilded Age stuffiness by tasting delicious Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and Thai delights, such as onigiri, kimbap, dumplings, satay, and more.

Walk with a local New Yorker and explore!
