Hyper-local Foodie Tourism in the Fraser Valley, with Lise of Chew On This Tasty Tours

April 27, 2021

It’s the PERFECT week to talk about this, don’t you think? Like you, I was not surprised to hear Dr. Henry and Minister Dix ask us not to travel outside of our health authorities. But instead of seeing that as a limitation, I’m fascinated by everything we have to explore safely right outside our own front doors! I hope you’ve rediscovered that great take-out place down the road from you, or perhaps you bought a birthday cake for a friend from that elegant bakery a few blocks over. There are some really special, one-of-a-kind family-owned small businesses in our Valley. Today, we’re going to highlight some of these gems with someone who loves to show them off.
My Guest today is a true local expert, with a local’s knowledge of the Langley and Fort Langley areas. If there’s a cool secret, a cozy little nook, a pastry or gourmet treat that will melt your heart, she knows about it. Her business “Chew On This Tasty Tours” offers walking tours for foodies in the Fraser Valley, and if you’re looking for a viral-worthy Instagram moment, you need to know about her.
Coming to you from White Rock, please welcome my Guest Lise!
