Tours for the culturally and culinarily curious! I plan historical dining and cocktail experiences designed to entertain and enlighten foodies looking to explore New Orleans like a local, find new favorites and discover hidden gems. A New Orleans native, I grew up surrounded by a passion for good food, an appreciation for the talents of the cook and a love for the community it brings to the table. I've created a tour experience that is for learning, as much as it is for celebrating and making memories. On our walks between stops, you'll hear about local culture and colorful traditions, discover unique architecture and art and learn how our history has shaped our cuisine and cocktails. You're also supporting a woman-owned, small business that supports other small businesses and getting a look into New Orleans with a taste of our famous hospitality. My tours feel more like being shown around by a friend, an adventure discovering the places I love!

This was a wonderful tour. Michelle is very knowledgeable about the Bywater area and her historic and cultural commentary is colorful, fun and informative. She knows the roads and since we were four people, we zipped around in her car, cutting through cool neighborhoods with hidden shortcuts. She handled my gluten-free diet perfectly, found a gem of a taco bar with a lovely shaded courtyard. I felt my umbrella in her car and she even returned it to my house. A+
Amazing! Very casual, very fun conversations, and very good restaurants!
We had a walking food tour in the Garden District. Michelle was knowledge of the area and chose some good places to stop for samples, however she was a little underprepared, not as structured as similar tours we have gone on. We did learn some things about the area, about the history of the types of foods served, and overall had a good experience.
