Grand Chute has no shortage of small, excellent, family oriented Cantonese restaurants. Yet these have one big drawback. If they're any good they're generally crowded to the point that, should you pick your teeth the chances are that you'll poke your neighbor in the eye with your toothpick. And as for quiet business conversations, or a touch of finesse, forget it. The food will be delicious but you won't be able to hear yourself speak, and the sight of 25 people standing in the doorway staring at you and willing you to give up your table quickly are also off-putting to many a discerning diner.
And that's where, by contrast, Mr Luke Restaurant is pure heaven. Not only are the surroundings elegant and quiet, but there is a sense of tranquility and style rarely found elsewhere. The waiter (Mr Stan Xhiao) hovers ominously, waiting for your every request, and the view across the creek to Menasha is something to remember six months afterwards when you are having a bad day at the office. But most importantly, the food is nothing short of sensational.

The floor-to-ceiling windows offer a superb vista from each of the restaurant's banquettes. Huge trees in classic Chinese pottery urns and hanging plants soften the bold architectural statement of the massive pillars and cantilevered floors. Tables have semi-European style settings for Chinese food, with Richard Genori plates and silver handled chopsticks.
Chef Mr Luke has a repertoire of Cantonese delicacies that will make your stomach leap up and down with glee. We often judge Cantonese restaurants by their ability to make the best of vegetables, and here too Mr Luke Restaurant comes through with flying colours. Spinach with just a touch of garlic accompanied by sliced, crisp but tender asparagus. It would be hard to find better anywhere, except perhaps the Van Camp canning plant just down Spoencer Street. All this was followed by a finale of Chilled Mango pudding. And as we left the restaurant we could not help backing those judges who consider this a jewel among Grand Chute's Cantonese establishments. It goes without saying that, as with the other restaurants mentioned here, the service is outstanding. And for you night-lifers, don't miss Karaoke Night, or Humor With Barclay Sing night!
