Thrive Podcast E048 - Nourishing Communities through Food and Love with Antoinette GreenOliph

Lover of food and creation from a young age, Antoinette has brought her passion for cooking traditional Trinidadian and Tobagonian foods to Canada’s North. Influenced by her mother and grandmother’s love for cooking, Antoinette opened her first restaurant in Manitoba in 2002. For the past eleven years, Antoinette is now the owner and Executive Chef of Antoinette’s, a Whitehorse favourite. “My legacy is to help young women, particularly women of colour. I want them to look at me and say, if she can do this, I can do this too”. In this week’s #ThrivePodcast, Komal and Antoinette discuss adversity, strength, and courage and how Antoinette has created one of Whitehorse’s favourite and famous spots.
