Two best friends. One local bestie in every city.
Joanna and Melissa met in grade one and never really un-met. Melissa moved away after that first year, but the friendship survived years of letters, visits, and late-night calls from different cities.
Years later, while studying urban planning in Italy, Joanna fell hard for the slow food movement. The lightbulb moment came mid-booking a food tour — she didn’t want a guide trailing her for hours. She wanted freedom, discovery, and connection on her own terms. That spark became Taste the City.
When Melissa visited Calgary, Joanna pitched her. Together they built a company that uses technology to bring people back to the table — to celebrate local restaurants and the communities that make cities feel like home.
Their dream? A local bestie in every city, pointing you to the very best bites in town.
