This luxurious oasis offers superb food complemented by a carefully curated selection of contemporary artworks and serene 180-degree sea views, creating the perfect setting for a sophisticated fine dining experience.

The Story of NUVA

NUVA is inspired from the word Nubivagant, which originated from Latin words “nubes” (cloud) & “vagant” (wandering) to mean wandering in the clouds.

Logo Design

More meticulous details are reflected in NUVA’s elegant logo. Inspired by a traditional Chinese knot, which is an age-old symbol of joy and good fortune in Chinese culture, the logo embodies the restaurant’s Chinese name (澐.NUVA) while also representing the timeless beauty of waves and clouds.

Achieving sustainability

We emphasise the use of local and seasonal ingredients, collaborating with the non-profit organization - Vegetable Marketing Organization to source high-quality local vegetables, including organic and hydroponic produce, not only reducing carbon emissions but also supporting local farmers.
