A little skill. A lot of confidence.

I’m back at Sur La Table at Pike and Rose part time and teaching our Knife Skills classes.

To me, there is no more important kitchen skill than learning how to use your knives properly. Once you become comfortable, any prep you do will be that much easier and hopefully more pleasant.

Chef Mike Selman
Your chef & instructor

Meet Chef Mike.

My love affair with food and cooking dates back to childhood. I learned basic survival culinary skills by trial and error in college…not always successfully. My passion and expertise developed as I cooked for family and friends and had done private catering for almost twenty years.

The only thing I enjoy more than food and cooking is sharing my passion in teaching others how to cook.
