Northwestern Cutlery
Every home chef needs the right tools to deliver a flawless holiday meal. Northwestern Cutlery should be your first stop before you plan your Thanksgiving dinner with all those fixins’. The store, in business since 1972, caters to professional chefs but home cooks benefit by being exposed to professional quality knives, tools and discounts. To get the best deals, shop in-store since Northwestern Cutlery cannot offer these discounts online due to manufacturers’ pricing restrictions.
