Chef and television-personality Luke Nguyen has announced today the launch of Luke Nguyen Street Food pop-up restaurant in The Star's Café Court. Coinciding with the start of his new SBS TV series Luke Nguyen’s Street Food Asia, the casual eatery promises a menu of rustic Southeast Asian fare.
Nguyen has a long, established relationship with The Star, the casino is home to his Fat Noodle restaurant. The Luke Nguyen Street Food pop-up also follows in the footsteps of Sokyo Ramen by Chase Kojima and Singapore Hawker Style, which have both appeared at The Star over the past year.
Nguyen said, “I’m really excited to help build on the The Star’s pop-up restaurant success, and look forward to offering food lovers some of the best rustic dishes from my recent street adventures. I guarantee visitors an exotic mix of tastes, textures and flavours straight from the heart of Southeast Asia.”

At the age of 23, Luke fulfilled his dream by opening his very own restaurant – Red Lantern, with his sister Pauline Nguyen and Mark Jensen. In 2012, the team opened their second restaurant, Red Lantern on Riley & Red Lily Cocktail Bar. Fat Noodle, Luke Nguyen’s pan-Asian eatery at The Star, has views of twinkling lights of another kind, and they have names like “Emerald Jade” and “Rainbow Jackpot”. I’m talking about this 112-seater restaurant being located right on the poker floor of The Star casino. Like, right there.
The menu features dishes inspired by Nguyen's travels through Saigon, Bangkok, Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur. They include lobster tom yum with mussels, lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves and vermicelli noodles, Vietnamese baguette with char-grilled lemon-grass, Kurobuta pork patties, pork floss, pickled vegetables, coriander and chilli, and Smashed fried crispy chicken with chilli sambal and rice.

Andy North, General Manager of Food & Beverage at The Star says, “We are delighted to welcome Luke Nguyen Street Food to The Star’s casual dining precinct. It will be a rare and almost virtual opportunity for Luke’s fans and The Star’s visitors to taste the sensational street cuisine featured in his new show for themselves.”
