I don't often award the high fives, so when I do, you know it's worthy.
LuMi has all the elements:
Location - waterside with exceptional views of the city and north Sydney.
Accessibility - a short jaunty stroll across the road from Star City where there is ample parking. No cab driver can be confounded when you ask him to take you to S.C. Plus, the light rail is another option.
Ambience - slick, sexily lit at night by dozens of soft incandescent globes, plain furnishings that do not distract from the views; of your date, the sparkle of the surrounds or the artwork on your plates.
Service - top notch, attentive without being intrusive.
The price - suitable for the sheer quality and effort put in to bring you un petit mort at each bite.
The drinks list - varied, interesting, terrific selection of wines by the glass and a pleasing cocktail list. You can take the option of matching wines with the degu for an extra $80.
The food - where do I start? We enjoyed the evening degustation which was listed as 8 small courses, but was actually 11 tantalising dishes. The one I vote as most outstanding was the agnolotti. Silky, whisper thin bundles of hand made pasta, with a delicate porcini mushroom filling. Each bundle was a taste sensation explosion of pleasure. (Tip: put it in your mouth for 10 secs then use your tongue to push it towards the roof of your mouth for best effect). Wow. Degu $105 per head.
This place is perfect for any number of the more intimate dining events such as date night, a quiet birthday celebration, anniversary with your beloved or just because you deserve it. Not really suited for group affairs over six people, I'd suggest.
