Site: http://foodtoursofny.com/p/tours.html
Report: https://directindex.org/r/foodtoursofny.com
Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
New York Food Tours is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open New York Food Tours's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Eventbrite.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.eventbrite.com/o/new-york-food-tours-all-tours-208347293 (through eventbrite acting for the business)
- Order directly: http://foodtoursofny.com/p/PrivateOrder.html (on the business's own site)
- Phone: (347) 559-0111
- Address: 295 Broome St Apt 12, 10002, New York

## Nearby, also direct
Places near New York Food Tours that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- Lower East Side Tenement Museum (180 m): https://directindex.org/r/tenement.org
- International Center of Photography (250 m): https://directindex.org/r/icp.org
- Lion/tiger Travel Bus (380 m): https://directindex.org/r/nytiger.com

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (TouristAttraction, Museum, TravelAgency or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No tickets and prices found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what does it cost and when?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with tickets, times and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **No working HTTPS.** (+3 points) The page is only served over plain http. Browsers and agents rank it lower or refuse it.
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2023.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In New York, 72% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.
