After completing his training, Luke persuaded Michel Roux of the 3 Michelin starred 'Waterside Inn' in London to give him a chance. He believes that working under these great chefs in the early years were the two most important steps he took to learn his craft. Luke currently owns and operates glass brasserie, Hilton Sydney; Salt grill, Hilton Surfers Paradise; Salt grill and Salt tapas & bar, Singapore; Salt and the adjoining World Wine Bar, Tokyo; and Salt grill onboard three P&O cruise liners.
