#9 - Chef Garrett Talmage of Galla Park - a podcast by Ray Chmielecki

On this episode of the Spoon Mob Podcast, Ray talks with chef Garrett Talmage, the former executive chef of Nada's Columbus restaurant and the new executive chef at the soon to be open Short North steakhouse Galla Park. They talk about how Garret got into cooking, his first job at The Waffle House, a kitchen full of 30+ year olds nicknaming him "The Prodigy" at The Top, all the different kitchens he worked in around the Columbus area, his first executive chef job at The Corner On Union in Athens Ohio near Ohio University, all the challenges of being the executive chef at the now closed Cosheca Cocina, learning how to run a kitchen while managing a restaurant at Nada, how the Galla Park opportunity came to be, and where they're at with opening the restaurant before answering the "burning grill" questions!
