DINING
From traditional dishes to unexpected delights, dining with Capella Singapore on Sentosa Island is a delicious journey through flavour.

Inspired by the historic spice routes of Southern and Western China, Cassia offers a contemporary twist on authentic Cantonese cuisine, while Bob’s Bar is where guests retreat to watch the sunset with a carefully-curated cocktail. Our upcoming restaurant concept, Fiamma, features authentic Italian family cuisine by Mauro Colagreco.

FIAMMA
Fiamma, which stands for flame in Italian, is built upon the inspiration of Chef Mauro Colagreco watching his grandmother cook during his younger days, coupled with his burning passion for cooking that is akin to the flame of a fire. A salute to the heritage and spirit of Italian family cuisine.

In a time when restaurants are redesigning luxury through a herald to authenticity and simplicity, Fiamma is a salute to the heritage and spirit of Italian family cuisine. The essence of Fiamma derives from its translation: “Flame”.

Nestled in the heart of Capella, Fiamma captures the essence of intimate, familial Italian cooking and brings the flame of people together through shared experiences and memories, bonded together over hearty flavours at the table.

CUISINE FROM THE HEART
Inspired by the intimate and vibrant atmosphere of an Italian family kitchen, the menu at Fiamma is a refreshing take on the flavours and textures reflective of a timeless heritage.

Each dish is a toast to the seasonal beauty of nature’s abundance and the wonders of clean cooking using fresh, quality ingredients to evoke curiosity for the humble luxury of Italian cuisine.

A PLACE OF WELCOME
Step into a place that is sincere, convivial and down-to-earth, one that brims with honoured simplicity and revitalised geniality. Fiamma is born out of a passion for open flame cooking, fine craftsmanship and a consciousness for fresh produce.

Guided by the spirit of authentic hospitality, Chef Mauro takes utmost care to thread every dish and experience with sincerity and warmth. It promises to provide a refreshing take on authentic, traditional Italian cuisine in a place of warm familiarity and timeless charm.

A FLAME REKINDLED
Heritage is an important ingredient in Chef Mauro’s repertoire of dishes. His cooking is informed by the connection he shares with his ancestors, and is re-told by the story of the fig tree. It dates to Chef Mauro’s great-great aunt, who slipped a branch of the fig tree into her suitcase upon leaving her native land.

Although Chef Mauro has never met her, the fig allows him to meet her, imagining her happy under the fig tree which has crossed oceans and experienced the movement of waves.

Echoing the sense of origin, belonging and memories, the storied history of his ancestors and the fig tree strengthens the invisible thread that connects flavours and scents to the deepest feelings and emotions.

Fiamma is an ode to watching Chef Mauro’s grandmother cook during his younger days, an act which sparked his burning passion for cooking in his later years.

Growing up in the Colagreco family, the appreciation for fine Italian cuisine and its essence was integral in his daily life. And it is this culinary tradition that Chef Mauro masterfully weaves into Fiamma, bringing to you the same passion that he embraced in his culinary journey.

WELCOME HOME
The fire crackling in the wood-fired oven, the aroma of freshly made pasta and olive oil drizzled on warm sourdough bread.

These are the sights and sounds familiar to Mauro’s family kitchen and we usher you to join us at the dining table, to create new memories and connect with friends and family over hearty, comforting flavours.

CASSIA
The taste of innovation in an ambience of tradition. With interiors designed by André Fu and inspired by the historic spice routes of Southern and Western China, Cassia is a contemporary Cantonese restaurant serving unexpected twists on traditional dishes.

Based on the best regional recipes and using the finest seasonal ingredients, the menu celebrates the contrast and combination of flavour.

THE UNTAMED PATHS
Delve ankle-deep into the intertidal zone and explore a surprising world teeming with marine life, right on the shores of Sentosa.

The intertidal zone is an area of the coast caught between two worlds – submerged during high tides and exposed during low tides. It is rife with hidden life and a whole array or marine ecosystems, often invisible to the unsuspecting eye.

Equipped with a torch and a boundless sense of curiosity, escape to the wild side as the experienced wildlife guides from The Untamed Paths take you through unchartered territories to uncover hundreds of aquatic flora and fauna.

To get the most of any nature walk, your guides will tell you to look out for subtle noises and movements as this might mean the next nocturnal critter is just around the corner. The one and a half hour guided experience is as much an engaging adventure as it is an educational one.

Besides discovering the animals that support our marine ecosystem, this intertidal exploration aims to equip you with a greater appreciation and knowledge of our marine ecology and coastal geology, identify different marine life and appreciate the different classifications from echinoderms to cephalopods.

Singapore is known for its share of world-class museums, exhibitions and art spaces such as the National Gallery and the ArtScience Museum. However, it’s also home to an abundance of street art and iconic wall murals tucked away in the most unexpected places.

Art and food are the very soul of Singapore’s culture. During your local street art experience, let our guides take you on a gastronomical journey to explore local hawker gems around districts such as Tiong Bahru, Tekka Market and Serangoon Road.

Be enthralled and inspired by the local works of art while bonding over mouth-watering hawker delights such as popiah, chwee kueh and roti prata.

MORNINGS AT THE WET MARKET
Wet markets offer a one-of-a-kind sensorial experience. The early morning hustle and bustle, scents of fresh seafood and raw poultry intermingling with exotic spices and fresh flowers, and cacophony of stall owners attempting to attract more customers.

The term “wet markets” derives from the markets’ wet floors which are caused by the melting of ice often used to ensure the freshness of seafood sold and by stall holders who routinely clean their stalls by spraying them with water.

Wet markets are typically divided into two sections, a “wet” section where fresh produce, meat and fish are sold, and a “dry” section where stalls selling goods such as spices, rice, dried noodles, dried seafood and beans are located.

Wet markets have become a common ground for Singapore’s ethnically diverse population to interact and bond, and are evident of Singapore’s vibrant community heritage.

It is here where visitors can find a Malay stall selling mutton next to a Chinese stall selling vegetables or fish, or an Indian stall selling spices and condiments.

One of the earliest wet markets to be built was Tiong Bahru Market in 1950. Back then, it was also known as Seng Poh Market.

Today, the Tiong Bahru estate retains its close-knit kampung (Malay for “small village”) spirit and has the communal feel of a bustling and lively little enclave where everyone recognises and cares for one another – a spirit that is also evident in the interactions between stall holders and residents at Tiong Bahru Market.

This wet market experience takes you on a guided tour of Tiong Bahru Market by one of Capella’s expert chefs, who will introduce various common local produce and how to identify their freshness and quality.

After filling up your baskets with all the ingredients you need, let our chefs take you back to Chef’s Table where he will whip up a delicious local dish, while you savour a delectable 3-course lunch.

A PERANAKAN WAY OF LIFE
Discover the rich heritage and colourful cuisine of the Peranakans, and how they have influenced Singapore as we know today.

Even though you may find distinct traces of Peranakan culture in the modern city, the community’s identity has often been shrouded in mystery, leaving much of it to stories and folktales from our forefathers.

The best way to experience the rich and colourful Peranakan history, though, is to dive deep into the sights, sounds, and tastes of the culture that is undergoing a revival around Singapore.

Retrace the steps of early Peranakans as they develop their roots in Singapore, and explore different facets of this unique heritage intricately interwoven by both Malay and Chinese influences – from the timeless food, fashion, lifestyle, and their various past times.

The Peranakan cuisine is one that is both distinct and bold in flavours, and is also well known for a wide variety of traditional cakes, commonly known as kueh.

The early 20th century was also the golden age of the sarong kebaya, a traditional Peranakan batik skirt worn with a fitted blouse, and is still proudly worn by Peranakan women – Nyonyas – in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and Myanmar.

Immerse in this authentic experience with an exclusive Peranakan museum tour at the Straits Enclave, and step in to a moment in time at the Koon Seng Peranakan House, where you will find treasured heirlooms and ornaments.

Then, take a stroll along Katong, an enclave well known for its restaurants serving Peranakan cuisine and particularly, a spicy Straits Chinese noodle soup called the Katong laksa.

Mummy Soh’s home is an opportunity to go back in time and revisit this era, with her urban farm, cooking school, art gallery and community centre.

In her home, she frequently hosts dinners and conducts cooking classes, maintaining an open-door policy to encourage the exchange of ideas and keep traditions alive through these community events.

Unique to Singapore, the ‘kampong spirit’ was alive as mothers would gather and exchange recipes, while the children made friends and wandered around the villages.

During your One Kind House experience, Mummy Soh will teach you how to whip up farm-to-table local favourites like Fish Laksa, Mee Siam, and Chicken Curry.
