Chef Nathan Anda, Executive Chef at Tallula
Arlington's neighborhood restaurant Tallula has been combining seasonal, sustainable foods and trendy
nightlife. Now, join Chef Nathan as he guides a tour through the Arlington Farmers Market (where he is a
regular shopper) as he shares recipe hints and tips on preparing seasonable foods.
Nathan crafted his style and perfected his skills under some of the best chefs in the Washington, DC area.
After receiving his undergraduate degree from the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, he worked the grill
in several restaurants around Charlottesville, VA, before attending culinary school at the New England
Culinary Institute in Montpelier, Vermont. Nathan moved to Washington, DC in the fall of 2002 to work under
renowned chef Todd Grey at Equinox Restaurant. In the fall of 2003, Nathan moved to Ceiba Restaurant to
work for chef Jeff Tunks. Nathan reunited with Chef Grey in January 2004 to help plan the menu and organize
the kitchen for Market Salamander in Middleburg, Virginia. In June of that year, Nathan was tapped as
executive chef for the Neighborhood Restaurant Group's latest project, Tallula, which opened in November
2004. Learn more at http://www.tallularestaurant.com
