Luke Lawrence Barry is seemingly having a full circle moment as he now steps into the role of executive chef at the grand, pink dame of Cape Town, the Belmond Mount Nelson. It is technically not his first turn on the lawns of the Nellie in his chef’s whites, as Barry graduated on the lawns outside Oasis when completing his studies at the South African Chef’s Academy. What a wonderful moment of return for this chef. Stories and storytelling are what Barry’s food journey and concepts are about.
