I was the only person on the tour and instead of canceling, he honored the booking. I was totally blown away away by his commitment on a cold winter night in London. I had a chance to really discuss the food and the culture and I m totally hooked now on Indian food! We visited 3 restaurants, one sweet shop and a grocery shop in Brick Lane and in Whitechapel. Who knew…”
