rs of Northwest Arkansas podcast, we found ourselves in Bentonville at a newer place that I’d heard about called Cura Culinary. It’s a smaller restaurant located inside Bentonville Provisions over by the Momentary and it’s run by husband and wife team Garyn and Mia Folden.

If Garyn’s name sounds familiar to you, you were probably at Top Chef NWA in November where he took home the big trophy. He’s no stranger to the local food scene, having worked at places like the River Grille, Tusk and Trotter and others.

Mia keeps the front of house in order while maintaining their social media, curating the wine list, and basically everything else you could possibly think of.

Garyn’s not from here, but will tell you how he got here. He and Mia had a plan that didn’t include staying in NWA. They took their talents to New York where they learned what they wanted to be, what they didn’t want to be, and WHERE they wanted to be- which was back in NWA.

They’ve been open for a month and a half at this point. They’ll tell you what their future plans are in this episode. We hope you check it out (available wherever you listen to podcasts).
