skillet street food

Our Story

Our goal is to provide seasonally relevant, locally sourced and impeccably executed bistro style food up and down the west coast…...out of our airstream trailers.

We buy old Airstream Trailers, and outfit them so that they have a full commercial kitchen. We then go out to local office parks, events, farmers markets and provide impeccably executed and seasonably relevant bistro style food. Our market is people who really like food, and who appreciate food. Our goal is Seattle first, the west coast/world second.

So a little about me...I graduated from the CIA Hyde Park campus in 1998 and from there took a circuitous route to figuring out that I didn’t really enjoy working in restaurants, but loved food, the craft that I belonged to, and creating for people.. I ended up starting a small business in which I worked for photographers as the private chef for the crew on photo shoots, and from that experience got a real grasp on mobile food

In 2007, I felt the strong need to create something that would keep me closer to home, and street food felt like a niche that was underserved at a higher end level...so, skillet was born.

Along with the help of a bunch of people and many, many bumps along the way, we have been able to carve out a niche here in seattle and are continuing to grow.. It is an exciting time, and I wouldn't trade it for the world.

So along with my beautiful wife, kelli, soon to be born baby, and my pups, Lucca and zola, we hope to create business that sustains itself through impeccably executed food, simply done, and regionally relevant.

We look forward to meeting you when you're in Seattle. Stop by and say hey..

cheers…!
