Damaris Coulter (Ngāti Kahu) started her hospitality journey as a child, working at her uncle’s restaurant in Kaitaia. She grew up around hospo and spent her early adult life learning from some of the best chefs and restauranteurs in the business, both here, and in Italy and the UK.  When she returned to Aotearoa, she opened Coco’s Cantina with her sister, and ran the restaurant for almost 10 years before signing over her share to pursue a world-changing idea.  Her new project, The Realness, shines a light on small business. A space to highlight independent, owner-operated, artisan food spaces.  In this episode Damaris talks to us about her passion for hospitality and how she believes we can flip the economy by supporting small, and local. Sidenote, there’s a few F-bombs dropped through this podcast, Damaris is a passionate speaker, so if swearing hurts your ears, this one might not be for you.

So So Hospo Series: Damaris Coulter

Ciao bella gente! Welcome to Episode 21 with Damaris Coulter on DOUGIT the podcast. Queen D, aka Miss Personality (she actually won that award), aka Damaris is one half of the super sister Duo behind the dopest Italian restaurant in town - Coco's Cantina. Damaris and her Sister Renee grew up in Kaitaki and have a lifetime worth of lessons, travel, creativity and hilarity they have managed to fuse together, without killing each on the way, into the delicious melting pot, their home, Coco's Cantina. When you dine, drink, tinder date, break up a brawl, tell some bitch to stop causing a scene at Coco's you feel like you are one of the family. The love and community they put into the place is next level. Everything from the Beyonce photos, Toby Morris illustrations, to the BE KIND business cards adds to the richness of the experience at Coco's.Damaris is on a mission to the best fucking human she can be, to spread the "Realness" (which will soon be an app too to help you find the best locally owned operated restaurants in town and much more) and to equalise inequality. She tells it like it is and cuts threw the bullshit. I love how she embraces life and even the odd c%$nts too to turn it into art/good/something, like the bad reviews on their website which are hilarious! I hope you DOUG Queen D on the podcast and get to experience the magnificence that is Coco's for yourself. I also teach yoga there at Middnight once a week on Wed/Thur, if you're interested in getting loose after getting loose PM me. Think less, experience more &amp; be kind! :DougCoco's Cantina InstagramNoam Chompsky - American linguist, philosopher, cognitive scientist, historian, logician, social critic, and political activist.David Pockock - The realest rugby player &amp; conscious hero! Eight Thirty Coffee - Dope coffee roasters.
