Concept

Salt, Sydney was Luke’s first restaurant which opened in 1999. In ancient Greece, salt was a rare, expensive commodity and it was given to people as a sign of hospitality and friendship.

These traits are the core ingredients for Luke’s service philosophy and so the success of Salt began. The name was used again for Salt, Tokyo in 2007. Salt grill is an extension on that and first appeared on P&O’s Pacific Jewel in 2009. Salt grill has since been opened in Hilton Surfers Paradise and opening soon would be our new outlet in Jakarta.

Modern Australia Concept

Mod Oz is a relatively recent term that denotes the culinary style of a country searching for its own food identity. Brought about by a large multicultural society, chefs embraced different cuisines which in turn inspired a fusion of new ingredients and traditional techniques with the best produce available. Food is fresh, high quality and the cuisine emphasises simple preparation of unique ingredients. The variety of foods in Australia reflects the land and climate.

The Salt grill menu contains fresh Australian produce combined with the best of local ingredients. You can dine on earthy barramundi fish, salty Coffin Bay oysters, sweet Spencer Gulf prawns, delicate Petuna Ocean Trout from Tasmania. All meat is sourced from farming partners in Australia. Australian hospitality is intrinsic to the food, and your welcome at Salt grill will be as warm as if you were coming to a barbecue in our backyard.

Chefs

Luke Mangan is one of Australia’s leading chefs and restaurateurs and is highly regarded internationally as a shining example of Australia’s culinary culture.

His career started in Melbourne under Herman Schneider, of “Two Faces” fame. 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. He is also the consulting chef for Virgin Australia.

Tom Wells was born in High Wycombe, England and found his passion for cooking during his time at high school. He enrolled at Stafford College, where he continued his education and qualified in hotel catering. In 1998, Tom took on his first job in a professional kitchen as a Commis Chef.

His career has taken him all around the world, working at top hotels in England, Malta and Australia. In 2004, he helped to launch the Cunard Ocean liner ‘Queen Mary 2’ and remained with the cruise line for over 2 years, before returning to England.

The talented chef speaks of a long list of achievements including winning the ‘Aubrey Allen Chef of the Year’ competition in 2008, which was judged by 3 Michelin star chefs including Chef Pierre Koffman and his role as Head Chef at Turners Restaurant, Harborne Birmingham, when they earned their first Michelin star;

In 2009, Tom took the opportunity to return to sea, working with P&O Cruises and Luke Mangan. He played the role of Executive Sous Chef for Salt grill and was responsible for the successful set up of three of Luke’s Salt grill restaurants onboard the Australian luxury cruise liners. Tom is a talented chef with a cheerful manner. He has an amazing eye for detail and strives to provide guests with the best possible culinary experience.

Sharing Luke’s philosophy of using the freshest seasonal produce from the region, Tom’s experiences have put him in good stead, first heading the culinary team of Salt tapas when it opened in April 2012 and then taking over the reins as executive chef at Salt grill, Singapore in January 2013. The capable individual is looking forward to showcasing his versatility and creativity through the menu.
