Spend 12 hours in New York City on the ultimate NYC food tour with Chef Fidel of Corima, as he takes us on a deeply personal culinary journey through the restaurants that inspire him and fuel his love for the city.
From Brooklyn to Manhattan, experience New York City through the lens of a rising Michelin-starred chef, unfiltered, intimate, and packed with some of the best food in NYC.
Vato (Brooklyn)
We start close to home at Fidel’s own restaurant, Vato. Here, he spotlights the flour tortilla and showcases the burrito style he grew up with. A unique take on Mexican cuisine in NYC, these burritos are quickly building a cult following, and absolutely worth the wait.
Bar Kabawa
Next, we visit Bar Kabawa. Its sister restaurant, Kabawa, was just named the #1 restaurant by the New York Times. Expect bold Caribbean flavors, soulful dishes, and expertly crafted daiquiris that truly stand out in NYC’s bar scene.
Bar Miller
This one Michelin-starred sushi counter offers a refined and thoughtful take on omakase in New York City. With a focus on sustainable, locally sourced seafood, Bar Miller delivers an elevated sushi experience rooted in purpose.
Penny

A true neighborhood gem with serious chef credibility. Penny may appear simple, but every dish is intentional, balanced, and quietly impressive. Don’t judge this spot at first glance, these dishes deliver big flavor in unexpected ways.
Corima
Back to Fidel’s world. At his Michelin-starred restaurant Corima, his vision fully comes to life, refined, expressive, and deeply personal. This is where you truly understand his identity as a chef, his influences, and the story behind his cuisine.
Chez Fifi
A vibey, under-the-radar NYC restaurant blending charm with precision. Tucked inside a former uptown townhouse, Chez Fifi serves beautifully executed French bistro classics, with subtle Basque influences. The atmosphere, the food, the details, it’s something special.
Bar Chucho
We wrap the night at Fidel’s newest restaurant, Bar Chucho, one of NYC’s hottest new openings. Just weeks old, the space is already buzzing. The food reflects Chef Fidel’s journey, continuing his mission to tell his story through bold, personal flavors.
This is more than just a food tour, it’s a behind-the-scenes look at New York City’s best restaurants, guided by one of its most exciting rising chefs.
