Amy Turner (@turnerincalgary) has been a vital part of the Calgary Restaurant scene for a few years now. Originally from Vancouver, Amy started out in the corporate side of the restaurant world. She has since found her calling in Calgary in small, independent chef-driven restaurants. .
.

She opened @ModelMilk as the Assistant General Manager in 2011 and opened @AnjuRestaurant as the General Manager in 2014. Amy left Anju in 2016 to pursue her ultimate dream, opening her own restaurant. @DonnaMacYYC, named after Amy’s grandmother who was her first teacher in hospitality, opened in November of 2017 and was recently placed on Enroutes top 30 best new restaurants in Canada, as well as, @AvenueMagazine's Best New Restaurants 2018.

Amy recently fulfilled another dream when she created the “Women Supporting Women in Hospitality” scholarship at @sait. This past International Women’s Day, Amy hosted 6 female chefs, 2 female sommeliers and a female bartender at a sold out Chef’s Dinner at Donna Mac. With the goal of 1500$, Amy and her guests managed to raise 4400$ for two scholarships for female hospitality students.
Amy encourages women to start the business they want to be employed in.

“I opened Donna Mac because it was the kind of restaurant environment that I wanted to work in”
As well as trying to empower more women in the restaurant industry, Amy is focused on changing toxic and unsafe restaurant culture.
Amy, you are such a bad ass and we thank you for being the essence of Women Lifting Up other Women in your industry! .

Veuve Clicquot RICH... the fruit is boosted to an exciting new level. The signature Pinot Noir of Veuve Clicquot is given new versatility with a higher dosage, while a greater presence of Meunier emphasizes fresh, fruity and gourmand notes. Citrus and floral notes are found on the palate, which are balanced with the dynamic freshness and creamy finish common to all expressions of Veuve Clicquot.
Blend: 45% Pinot Noir, 15% Chardonnay, 40% Meunier

Today I learned you shouldn’t underestimate the power of a pantsuit! Also the pockets are big enough to actually fit wine tools and stuff in, I’m just saying... I know you other Lady Somms feel my pain (dresses we are looking at you)! Cheering to my future with some Villa Erbice Valpolicella!
