We had the good fortune of connecting with Liz Willoughby and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Liz, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I wanted to do something as a side project to my regular 9-5 job. I thought it would be fun to post pictures and videos. I’ve always considered myself a foodie and people are always asking me for restaurant recommendations. I thought why not share it all with everyone on Instagram?

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I am so excited to try all of the restaurants and places that DFW has to offer! My favorite part of doing this is to try different brands and restaurants. I learn so much about the owners and their stories and it’s amazing to connect and give them their credit they’re due!

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
There’s way too many amazing places I’d take them. I would bring them to the Perot Museum, Klyde Warren Park, Reunion Tower, a comedy club, Deep Ellum, Farmers Markets all over the metroplex, Grandscape, Shops of Legacy, Granite Park, and The Star
