The Keith Lee And Family Food Tour Is Back On The Road!
The following stop on the Keith Lee and Family Food Tour is here! Lee recently announced some changes to his food tour in a video on TikTok.
“I’ve at all times said, this food tour is the very starting and it’s a trial and a test for larger things,” he said. “Over a span of seven months, we’ve been to a complete of about ten cities. And I’m not oblivious to criticism. I realize that the last two spots, I didn’t have the most effective experience. And I 100-percent take credit that there’s growth that might be had on my end. With that being said, me and my team have had multiple conversations.”
One improvement that Lee plans to implement into his food tour is having categories. Lee is adding three categories of restaurants that they go to.
“One being our target market, which is restaurants which have great food, great customer support, but could use the marketing,” he continued. “Two being local favorites that highlight the food scene in each city, voted on directly by the locals. And we’re gonna pick those restaurants by having a poll open on my IG Story so the locals in each city can pick the restaurants that we go to in that category.”
Lee feels that ought to “diminish” a few of the comments people make about not going to the correct spots.
The third category will probably be restaurants from “different backgrounds, different cultures, and different ethnicities.”
“In order that way, the spots that we go to in each city are more diverse,” he said. “So without further ado, the following city on the Keith Lee and Family Food Tour – Dallas, Texas.”
