Hi, I'm Lo! Having grown up in the
restaurant industry back in Canada,
owned my own cafe in Dublin and
guided food tours in Tuscany - it's safe
to say I know a little about food.

More importantly though, I love to
connect with people through this global
language. Solo travellers, couples, groups
- everyone is welcome!

Get in touch to book a walking Dublin
food tour.

Food Tour


I used to bring food to people and now I bring people to food!


Following a flag behind a long line of other tourists down a busy street? Nope.


Mouse size bites of mediocre food? Forget it. You won't leave hungry!


Visits to places any list online recommends? Not with me!


Eateries that are style over substance? Yawn.


We will visit my favorite eateries, chosen with the food lover in mind.


We'll be snack hopping while chatting about everything from bad dates to ghost stories to where we've been and where we're going.


What's different about my tours?


° details on the farm to fork connection

° genuinely delicious food

° emphasis on family and small business origins

° loads of laughter

° history tidbits to satisfy your nerdy side

° memories, darling, memories.


I'm looking forward to meeting AND feeding you!

REVIEWS


"In addition to leaving the tour with full and happy bellies, we left satisfied with the amount of knowledge and uniqueness that Lo provided. The delectable cuisine, the wonderful conversation, and the taste of Irish history made this tour truly and wonderfully unconventional."

Toren, USA

"Laura’s tour is a great insight into the Dublin food scene. Laura’s passion for locally sourced, sustainable ingredients from the chosen restaurants really helps to set the scene for Dublin’s emerging culinary scene. Expect some great eats and insights throughout your city tour. Awesome sized meals, too!"

Anthony, Australia

"The variety of different foods and the tour through the city was awesome. We loved how the tour showcased small local spots. You can come to Dublin and get a tour where you eat Irish food… or you can come to Dublin and get a taste of the Irish fusion cuisine at every stop of this tour! Highly recommended for foodies!'

Kayla,USA

"This tour really
exceeded my
expectations. Laura is
great and you can tell
she's really passionate
about what she does. All
the food was amazing
and I wouldn't have
discovered any of it
without this tour."

Bridget,Canada

"We are from Dublin and eat out regularly. We like trying new restaurants, and were not sure what to expect when being shown around our ‘home town’ by a Canadian, but we were really impressed. We had only eaten in one of the places Laura took us to previously, and to be honest, will be visiting some if not all of the ‘new’ places. Great host. Great restaurants. Great tasting food - even in a wet night in this 'dirty old town'.”

Glenn, Ireland

"Laura has a long and deep
connection with the restaurant
industry and small, family businesses
in particular. Not only was the food
experience great, but it was also just
great to get to know Laura, as well as
other people on the tour, as she
keeps the tours small so she can
really curate an intimate experience."

Noelle,USA

"This tour was amazingly! I
love that Lo has a great
relationship with each
location we visited! Her
storytelling is excellent and
I love that she can tell you
where the restaurant has
sourced their ingredients.
Choosing this tour is a
must!"

Tina,USA

"Had such a good time on Lo’s food tour, was such a great medley of hidden gems I would not have found otherwise and am so glad I did! It’s always a bit nerve wracking booking an experience as a solo traveller but Lo put me at ease instantly and we had a great time. If you want to experience delicious food and great company in Dublin, book this tour!!!
