Michelin Stars and Mega Venues: Shaping Ontario’s Tourism Future

from Forward Motion

Nick Di Donato, President and CEO of Liberty Entertainment Group, joins Andrew Siegwart to reflect on his journey in the hospitality world. From earning Canada's very first Michelin star to putting Toronto on the global culinary map, Nick shares what it takes to stay at the top in an ever-changing industry. He opens up about the challenges of rising costs—especially with increased minimum wage—and how innovation is helping him adapt. We dive into his ambitious new project at the newly opened 55,000-seat Rogers Stadium in Downsview, where modular kitchens and a team of 1,500 locals will bring food service to the next level. Plus, Nick gives us a sneak peek at his plans for the historic Prince Estate in Prince Edward County—and how he hopes to help transform the area into a premier tourism destination.Forward Motion thanks its partners for their support of this show: Destination Ontario Ontario Travel & Tourism Monthly See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
