What tours do you host?

I host the Gastronomic Gastown Tour, Best of Downtown Tour, and Granville Island Market Tour.

Why do you love Vancouver?

I love the lifestyle of Vancouver – having the ability to go to the beach or the forest within minutes of each other  is something I truly appreciate. I love that I can cycle anywhere I want to go around town. I love the diversity of this city – exploring different neighbourhoods and trying out new restaurants or breweries is definitely one of my favourite things to do.

What’s a food you absolutely cannot resist?

I seem to default to brunch – I can’t keep up with eating my way through Vancouver’s best brunches and perfecting my own poached egg on avocado toast. On a day off I’ll do my best to squeeze in a Happy Hour…

What are your hobbies (besides eating)?

I love traveling when I’m not hosting Foodie Tours and at home  gardening is a great way to unwind – I seed save and have several varieties of tomatoes that I grow year after year. I also enjoy cycling and picnic-ing (that’s a hobby, right?)

What is a fond food memory you’ve had?

One of my most recent adventures took me to Tasmania where I feasted on oysters right from the ocean. Definitely fresh and truly memorable! Ask me about my favourite places to try local oysters here in Vancouver! 

Why do you love hosting Vancouver Foodie Tours?

I love seeing how enthusiastic guests are about the Vancouver food scene and being reminded that we are so blessed to have amazing local vendors, especially at Granville Island. I’ll never get tired of that beautiful moment when someone has their first bite of fresh and hot donut from Lee’s Donuts!
