Fifteen adventurous foodies set off on a guided gastronomic tour through La Jolla on Jan. 29, getting a taste of the sumptuous flavors Village restaurants have to offer. The journey set forth as the San Diego debut of Dishcrawl, a San Jose-based walking food tour business that has expanded its tour offerings to the great food capitols of the nation.

Participants were at the beck and call of hostess Marciana Flores as she guided her hungry guests through the streets of La Jolla, stopping at four of the Village’s tastiest restaurants along the way. The restaurants and food offerings were kept under wraps until the group reached each destination, allowing guests to enjoy a mini surprise at each turn.

From sips of local craft brew to traditional Thai and Korean cuisine to the sweet taste of organic mini cupcakes, tour guests’ taste buds were delighted by the myriad dishes the local restaurateurs presented.

In case you missed it, Dishcrawl San Diego’s next escapade will take guests on a venture through Hillcrest on Feb. 20 at 7 p.m. Tickets to the event are $45. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit www.dishcrawl.com/sandiego or call (418) 506-9660.
