This is a flavor-packed experience that goes beyond your typical food tour. Join Unexpected Atlanta, the city’s #1-rated tour company, at the Sweet Auburn Curb Market for a two-hour journey where tasting and creating come together. You’ll taste your way through the market, sampling some of your favorite vendors while hearing the stories behind the food and the cultures that shape it. As you taste your way through different cuisines, you’ll start to pick up on what makes each dish flavorful: the unique spices that bring everything together. To understand the magic of spices, you’ll head into the Spice Lab for a hands-on session that’s part experiment, part creativity. You’ll play with spices in a whole new way, exploring things like why cinnamon doesn’t mix with water, how alliums deepen and transform over time, and what actually happens when flavors bloom, toast, or rest. Then it’s your turn. Using what you’ve tasted and learned, you’ll create two of your own custom spice blends to take home, inspired by your experience in the market. It’s relaxed, a little nerdy in the best way, and a lot of fun. Come curious, come hungry, and leave with something you made yourself.
