(Lise) possesses that hospitality gene and she puts in the hard work to create wonderful experiences for people while showcasing small businesses in several communities. In essence, she makes people happy.

I’ve been covering the hospitality industry as food writer and restaurant critic with the Postmedia papers for 30 years and can easily spot someone who genuinely loves it all — people-meeting, problem-solving, creative thinking, hard work, growing, and engaging with restaurants, chefs, and small businesses. She curates the experiences with great taste.

“Lise has done a wonderful job of partnering with operators within the Surrey food and beverage community to build truly one-of-a-kind offerings that highlight the area and feature story-worthy gastronomical experiences.
Her tour itineraries have become an asset to the Surrey tourism community and it has been my absolute pleasure to partner with Lise to package her tours with accommodation at the hotel. Lise demonstrates leadership and excellence in delivering truly remarkable experiences and she is, in fact, making great contributions to shaping the future of tourism in our community.”

“Chew On This Tasty Tours brings us exactly the kind of engaged, curious customers we love to serve. Through Lise’s tours, we’re able to share not just our coffee, but our story and vision with visitors who genuinely want to discover the heart of Chilliwack. What typically takes months to build with regular customers, Lise’s tours accomplish in a single visit – creating meaningful connections that extend far beyond the typical business transaction. It’s truly transformed how we engage with new customers.”

Spencer Croteau, General Manager, Smoking Gun Coffee Roasters

“Ever since we signed up to be a stop at the Downtown Abbotsford Tour, we look forward to the next email telling us who and how many people will be looking to stop into our Shoppe. Typically the group consists of two or more people, not from Abbotsford, discovering our store for the very first time. We usually offer a shopping incentive, like 10% off their purchase that day, and give them a little take-home bag with an additional 10%off coupon and a locally made treat. The hope is obviously, now that they discovered our store, they would come back soon. And they do.
This merely takes 15-20 minutes of our time, to welcome them in, talk about who we are, and our products; then they are quite happy browsing and shopping. I can’t see how anyone would not want to be a part of this intentional visit and exposure to your
business. Lise and her team have been nothing but helpful with constructive feedback and encouragement. Join today – it’s a good thing.

Waltraud, Owner, YES CHEF

“I have worked with Lise for several years with her Abbotsford itinerary. Lise continuously shows
commitment to our local culinary life within the City and works with many local businesses to create
opportunities. Lise is well known for not only leading and coordinating tasting tours, but for developing
strong partnerships and fostering long-lasting relationships throughout the community.
It is such a great pleasure to work alongside Lise and so motivating to see someone who genuinely
cares about creating positive experiences for people to connect and enjoy.”

Barb Roberts, Destination & Industry Development Manager, Tourism Abbotsford
