The BF surprised me with a wonderful belated Valentine's Day dinner as we were both away on biz during that over-commercialized event, so he brought me to LUKE's @ Heeren. Trying a restaurant for the first time always gives me a sense of adventure and having to find the "door" to this restaurant is the start of the adventure. After having read reviews online that looking out for the door to the restaurant is tricky. We originally wanted to give ourselves that challenge to look for that elusive "door". After awhile we caved and asked the SA. When we finally arrived at the "door" dawned in antique gold, something whispered into my ear, "Open me and it will the start of a wonderful culinary adventure!" Once you step in, it's like you have entered into another world that was unexpected from before. The restaurant was dimly lit, cosy and had a romantic feel. It was also a tad small, so I suggest you make reservations way in advance if you need to celebrate a special occasion with your significant other. Our order for the evening:1. Jumbo crab cakes- I liked the fact that because they knew we were sharing, they split the portion into 2 individual portions.- OMG this has got to be one of the best crab cake in Singapore! Imagine sweet snd succulent but more importantly meaty (not crab shavings) crab flesh carefully moulded tightly within a light batter that tasted a little like slightly crusty Parmesan cheese and carefully placed on what tasted like light lemon mayo aioli. The light lemon flavor complemented the crab meat well and brought out the sweetness of the crab flesh even more. To me the experience was simply divine. Definitely a must-try!2. Ribeye with salt and pepper corn crust - For the ribeye, you have got a choice of how you would like the beef to be done, sweet or savory. - BF chose the savory option which was with salt and peppercorn crust - In fact it was the crust that brought out the flavor of the beef and gave it a slight edge against a regular ribeye. - The beef was nice but I think for what's worth we have tasted better steaks at other joints. 3. Kurobuta pork with spiced apple jam- So I read a review of a prominent food critic and wondered why he chose to eat the kurobuta pork vs the beef. After trying for myself, I understood why. - Presentation-wise it doesn't look like much. But when you start to slice the pork with your knife, you will realize how tender it is. Put Abit of the spiced apple Jam on the pork and you'll be in porky pig heaven! - The only con about this was that the pork was fatty. But then I am sure it's required to allow the entire piece of meat to be marbled and tender to such amazing goodness level! 4. Sides: Kale salad with peanuts- The kale salad is one of the signature sides. - The kale was sliced in thin shreds and tossed in a refreshing dressing that tasted like it had light honey mustard, lemon, mint etc. - It's definitely a good complement to any mains but I only wished they didn't put in so much dressing. It overpowered the crisp and crunch of kale which i personally preferred. 5. Sides: Old fashioned potato hash- One word, WOW! - so this is like a pancake of rosti, only thing different is that it is 85% crisped through! This is like the "NEW FRY" I tell you...- Something that I would order again if I were to go back! Shiok! 6. Dessert: Key lime pie (deconstructed)- By the time you are done with your mains and sides, you won't have much room for dessert. So we ordered the lightest on the menu.- This dessert didn't put a smile on my face.- In my opinion, there wasn't much crust or bite into this dessert, it was just filled with a lot of creamy meringue and lots of lemon curd. I am a fan of lemon curd but that was way too much! Presentation was nice but that's all to it I'm afraid. On the whole, my BF and I had an amazing dining experience. It is definitely one of the better fine dining restaurants around. It would have been much better if they improved on their desserts. Just a note of caution, this place is pricey but worth it if it you are celebrating a special occasion.
