WRDC CW22 Interview: Community Matters

In this WRDC CW22 interview, Taste Carolina owner Lesley Stracks-Mullem shares how the company began during the recession after she created informal “food tours” for visiting family, and how it quickly grew beyond expectations. She explains what guests can expect on Taste Carolina’s guided walking tours across nine North Carolina cities: visits to about five restaurants per tour, stories about local history and architecture between stops, and meaningful interaction with chefs about dishes and locally sourced ingredients. The segment also highlights flexible options, including kid-friendly accommodations and customizable private tours for corporate groups, team-building, and client events.
