The Takeover: Aussie Seafood Smokehouse

The next edition of The Takeover lands at Meatsmith, and this time it’s all about seafood, smoke and storytelling — through the lens of Burnt Ends Head Chef, Luke Cawsey.

The Takeover series was created to spotlight the talent, creativity and passion of the Burnt Ends Hospitality Group team. Each edition sees one of our own step into the spotlight, crafting a menu that reflects their personal style and culinary journey — supported by the wider Burnt Ends and Meatsmith crew.

For this edition, Chef Luke brings the bold, open-flame energy of an Australian smokehouse to the heart of Singapore. The menu is a tribute to the waters he grew up with — built around premium Australian seafood and inspired by laid-back coastal barbecues. Expect flame-grilled skewers, raw and charred delicacies, and a highlight of smoked swordfish belly — all prepared with a produce-first approach and served with signature Burnt Ends finesse.

Luke will be working closely with respected Australian fishermen, and their names may feature on the menu alongside the dishes their catch inspires — a nod to the people behind the produce.

The evening will feature a 6–7 course tasting menu at approximately $150++ per person, with nostalgic touches on the drinks front — from classic Aussie beers like Reschs and VB to a curated list of standout Australian wines that pair perfectly with the smoky, seafood-led menu.

This is not just a dinner — it’s a personal expression of craft, place and passion.
