Nina | Feeding the 2006 Hurricanes Champions

On this episode Meghan Lamontagne meets Nina-Antonette Passalacqua-Psarros, the vibrant and beloved former owner of Nina’s Ristorante in Raleigh—a cornerstone of the local community and a home away from home for the Carolina Hurricanes. From feeding the 2006 Stanley Cup champions (she affectionately calls them “her boys') to sharing hilarious and heartwarming stories about her family’s journey from Sicily to Brooklyn and then to North Carolina, Nina brings her signature warmth, humor, and passion for food to every tale. Meghan dives into Nina’s incredible life, the cherished memories she created for athletes and fans alike, and the recipes that turned hungry Hurricanes into champions.
