Author description

Lawyer turned Chef, Chui Lee Luk took over Sydney's French-influenced Claude's restaurant from Tim Pak Poy four years after joining his team in 2000. Claude's remains one of Australia's most successful restaurants - a gastro temple for more than 35 years, with owners including French master Damien Pignolet. Expanding from the French base, much like her mentor Pak Poy, Luk draws on her Asian heritage to infuse exotic flavours into her menus. Chui remains one of the very few women chefs to achieve 3-hatted success. Born in Singapore and raised in Malaysia, Luk moved to Australia at the age of seven. Sharing meals and a passion for food at the kitchen table were part of her family life. Encouraged to pursue a profession she studied law, Chinese literature and art. After working as a solicitor at accountancy firm KPMG Luk followed her passion in the culinary field. She spent time at Wockpool and Cleopatra before joining Claude's restaurant.
