Imagine walking down a busy CBD street and you are compelled to whip your head around to witness a sneak peek of a glowing new restaurant and bar. Luma at the Playford Hotel describes that moment perfectly.
Luma Restaurant and Bar has made its debut as the centre-piece of the multi-million dollar upgrade of Adelaide’s original five-star boutique hotel.
With a nod to the elegant Art Nouveau style for which the South Australian, family-owned hotel is famed, Luma will grace 120 North Terrace with timeless style and sophistication, extending an invitation to both the locals and international guests throughout the day and night.
The pinnacle of this exciting new hospitality offering is a must-see magnificent 800m handcrafted lighting sculpture. The unmissable one-off art piece sets the tone with its light beaming over one of Adelaide’s most beautiful bars
The newly installed long tables span across the venue surrounded by massive columns and cosy booths.
The bar will be managed by celebrated mixologist Gregory Perrot, noted for once having created a $2,000 cocktail. A cut glass urn designed for sharing will be a signature of the Luma cocktail menu.
Luma’s restaurant is overseen by award-winning Executive Chef Kevin Martel. His fabulous share-inspired menu is a love note to European dining. Its bold flavours, colours and locally sourced organic ingredients, are prepared using both classic techniques and contemporary cooking methods.
“I am genuinely excited by Luma and the culinary journey we have in store for our guests which will showcase the best of South Australian produce. The Luma experience will be something special and unforgettably distinctive, energetic and inspiring,” Kevin said.
Distinguished by bespoke culinary concepts and attention to detail, the Luma experience commences with the morning light. Breakfast is organic, free range and always delicious. Fully cooked, or freshly baked and married with delicately brewed coffee along with a fine selection of teas or fresh juice to kick start the day.
Luma is so many things. It’s the mid-morning sunlight paired with a French pastry fresh from the oven enjoyed over conversation with coffee. It’s the midday light that casts the shortest shadow. Luma is a destination restaurant with the convenience of both express and a la carte menus.
It’s time for Aperitivos – perhaps one before dinner or a couple with friends to celebrate good times. As the skies outside darken and the glow of the sculpture chandelier takes centre stage, Luma truly comes to life with music, a gin, craft beer or specialty wines.
Luma is an incredible next step in the evolution of South Australia’s world-leading dining scene, bringing craftsmanship, entertainment and quality to the guest experience. Its award-winning team look forward to welcoming guests with a level of service befitting this truly inspiring culinary adventure.
