For Micah, cooking has always been about creativity and connection. Growing up in Big Lake, Minnesota, he spent countless hours in the kitchen with his mom, experimenting with whatever ingredients they had and learning how to make something out of nothing. That early curiosity eventually turned into a career when he landed a dishwashing job at a local supper club. Before long, he was cooking on the line and knew he’d found his calling. What keeps him inspired today are the people: friends and teammates working toward a shared goal, supporting each other through every rush and quiet moment alike.
What’s your favorite part of service?
I love that flow of service, when everything clicks and the kitchen runs smoothly. There’s a sense of clarity in the middle of the chaos.
