Tanya, recognized as Ms. Foodie CLT all over Charlotte, is not just a food influencer; she is a full sensory curator of the city’s culinary scene. Her Instagram, with over 33,000 devoted followers, is a vibrant tapestry of eye-popping, taste-bud-tantalizing dishes; core, incredible, real-deal restaurants; and hidden gems. If there is any kind of food experience in Charlotte or any food + travel experience worth having, you can bet that she is on top of it.
What Makes Her Feed Stand Out
Tanya’s curated photos and reel clips offer you an intimate look inside the most exhilarating culinary experiences Charlotte has to offer—her fresh-baked pastries, brunch spreads, sizzling in action at local hotspots, and cozy behind-the-scenes ambiances.
A tone that is personal and easy to relate to: “Hey Foodie Friends!” is how she lovingly begins her captions, making her followers feel like part of the journey. If she’s not trying to find the next mad brunch menu, she’s in a killer Monday-night trattoria recommend mode. Between the two, her enthusiasm is absolutely infectious.
Tanya works in tandem with businesses close to home, such as Yelp, and backs a range of nearby enterprises. They are on the ground and know what’s good to eat. Tanya faithfully serves up their recommendations, and locals are bound to trust her when she does. CLT Black Foodies,
with whom Tanya also volunteers, serves up and amplifies the voices of Black people in Charlotte’s food scene.
