The dish

Sashimi of Spencer Gulf Hiramasa Kingfish

The menu at Luke’s Kitchen is divided into starters that are designed to be shared – choose from small plates, large plates and substantial sharing plates. You’ll find dishes range from spanner crab salad to Wollemi duck served with an Indonesian-inspired curry with crisp skin, coconut sauce and Asian spices. The restaurant offers a fusion of Asian, European and modern Australian cuisine influences, and a varied menu designed for all-day dining. A signature of Luke’s is his Sashimi of Spencer Gulf Hiramasa Kingfish, with Dashi, sesame dressing, nashi pear and sisho. This truly exquisite dish is just one example of the celebrity chef’s light, fragrant, modern menu items.
