Shrimps, steak and apple pie at Luke's Oyster Bar & Chop House

Luke's Oyster Bar & Chop House

It's been a while since we were last here (, ). The restaurant has upheld their standards for good quality food.

The prices have gone up to commensurate that preserved standard. We were here for lunch. The lunch menu is for some reasons never available online.

Corn bread which has been good from the first time we've had them.

It started with $39, then $48 and now it's $54. Yes it's jumbo shrimp cocktails which we've of late taken interest in for some reasons. This one at Luke's featured big shrimps which were gently sweet, deveined and meaty. What's impressive was their cocktail sauce which packed a Tabasco styled vinegary heat, some brininess if I hadn't imagined it and that's paired with the traditional tangy sweetness. 👍🏼👍🏼

I have missed this!

Today, I discovered that their accompanying mustard on the side is a house mixture. There's some form of salt in it and maybe other stuff and I like it with their tenderloin au poivre. Just like how I "discovered" their Béarnaise the last time. So now it's between salt flakes, Béarnaise and their house mustard. First world problems much?

Luke's Oyster Bar & Chop House, grandma's apple pie

Dessert was their Grandma's apple pie. Nice cinnamon infused slices of cooked apple nestled within a fried pastry (yes, tasted fried like our favourite fast food, not baked) topped with maple pecan ice cream and julienned green apple sprinkled with cinnamon sugar. Nice!
