New Orleans is a city that loves food! We love to eat, cook, and talk about all things food and drink. I grew up in Southwest Louisiana – Cajun Country. I’ve been eating Louisiana food my whole life, and cooking it for as long as I’ve been able to reach the pot – with a stool! To say I love eating and talking about food would be an understatement, and living in a city with a food history and culture as rich as New Orleans is a dream I get to live everyday. Before I was a Real Estate Agent, I was a tour guide, and I took groups on food tours in the French Quarter where I shared our rich cultural and food traditions with visitors from around the world. Now, I want to do that with you in a private New Orleans Food Tour experience!
My Personally Curated Food Tour is a private experience that I curate to specifically meet your needs, requests, preferences, and curiosities. I will accompany you and up to 6 guests (7 people total) around the French Quarter (and maybe beyond) where we will try the best of New Orleans’ cultural cuisine and some gems of the New Orleans food scene you may not even know about! We’ll talk about the history of food in Louisiana and the cultural traditions that have inspired our dishes and kept them alive for over 300 years.

Praise for Kayla:
When in New Orleans there is only one person to go to for exclusive catered tours. Kayla she guided my personal group into the uncharted hidden gems of New Orleans! I wanted to see taste and drink and experience New Orleans like a local and she delivered hands down. She mixed history, food,beverage and her great personality all in one great tour…

PhiladelphiaMy husband and I had a wonderful time on Kayla’s New Orleans food tour, she is a wellspring of knowledge about the city and its food. We were particularly interested in the history both of food but also about the city’s numerous decades/century old restaurants and she really knew her stuff. We got the perfect mix of in depth facts and colorful stories. Having her guide us from place to place also lifted a great deal of the stress I generally feel in new places off my shoulders so I could just relax, enjoy and experience. Even after the tour was over her list of recommendations ensured that we did not have a single bad meal during our visit, the city’s food exceeded my high expectations. Starting off our first trip to New Orleans with Kayla Lemaire’s tour was the best choice I made.
P.S. Get a Sazerac at Hotel Monteleon, of the five I had during our stay it was by far the best, not the cheapest but definitely the best.
