My street food tour guide spent more time on his phone than talking about food
I joined a tour downtown last month and it was so frustrating. The guide kept checking his social media and taking videos for his own page. He barely told us about the history of the dishes or the vendors. We rushed through each stop so he could post updates. I remember this amazing taco stand, but we didn't hear who made them or why they're special. It felt like we were just extras in his content. Street food tours should be about connecting with the culture and the people, not boosting someone's online presence. Can we please get back to the real reason we take these tours?
