Follow Me Foodie: A trip though BC’s Napa Valley

Kelowna is BC’s mini Napa Valley and it’s the prime time to visit. The area is well-known as BC’s wine region, but there’s more to it than wine-tasting (although, don’t miss the wine-tasting!).
The selection of restaurants does not compare to Vancouver, but they have their own charm; and when it comes to “farm-to-table” dining, they have become leaders.
The farm-to-table dining experience is everywhere nowadays, but in Kelowna it just tastes different. It’s an amazing place to experience BC’s harvest since many of our local orchard fruits are grown there. You’re right at the source of it all, so take advantage of it.
It’s a great weekend getaway and you don’t have to worry about getting taxed on the boxes of wine you’ll want to bring back. I recently explored the area a bit more as a guest of Tourism Kelowna on behalf of Food Bloggers of Canada, and here are a few things I recommend from my last visit.
