INTERVIEW: Nathan Mergen, Chef/Owner of 107 State

This week is a departure from our regular format, so I hope you'll come along for the ride. I recently had the chance to interview Nathan Mergen, the Chef/Owner of 107 State (Madison, WI), and so I thought it might be helpful to hear about the successes and struggles of such a young restaurant. My hope is to start sharing more of these interviews over the coming months as a way of applying some of the academic lessons from the show. I hope you get a lot out of this one, and remember - if you want to be featured on the show, send me a message and we can chat.
