On Friday, news broke that Chef Nathan Anda of Arlington’s Tallula and popular neighboring bar/lounge EatBar will be departing. Anda received much acclaim while at Tallula/EatBar and was nominated for a 2008 RAMMY Award in the category of Rising Culinary Star of the Year. The good news is that Anda will be staying with Neighborhood Restaurant Group with plans to open a butcher shop and a new restaurant. Anda’s departure has paved the way for Andrew Markert, most recently working as chef de cuisine at Vermillion, to step up and take over the role of Executive Chef.
