Look for Strength

Episode 7: The Strength of Passion (Part 1)

Aimée Look Season 1 Episode 7

On today’s podcast, you’ll hear from Michael Bonacini.  Michael is an icon in the culinary world- as a world-renowned chef, the co-founder of the Oliver & Bonacini Restaurants across Canada, and a judge on MasterChef Canada.

The Oliver & Bonacini restaurants are stylish, innovative and the epitome of fine dining. Michael is head of the culinary program and is at the forefront of developing new projects. I am so thrilled to be speaking with Michael about his international upbringing, challenges he faced as a judge for MasterChef, founding a series of high-end restaurants, what he looks for in his team, and misconceptions that people might have about the restaurant industry.

 This is part 1: Michael will focus on his journey in becoming a chef, the restaurant business, and as a celebrity chef in the TV world, as well as some challenges he faced.
