Nuva

Located in far-out AsiaWorld-Expo, Nuva evokes feelings of lightness: floor-to-ceiling windows provide natural lighting and a stunning, unobstructed view of the South China Sea. Chef Toni Mak’s dishes swing for the fences, with some clear hits and misses. The stuffed crab shell is a spectacle of rich, creamy crabmeat, pleasantly aromatised with coconut milk and baked under a thin, crisp shell of breading. The char siu is succulent and carries an inviting, fragrant smokiness from the roasting process that permeates through every bite. Service is highly attentive and unobtrusive.

Signature Dishes

Tatler Tip

Try to book a table next to the windows during the daytime; and make sure to avoid crowded days during live events at AsiaWorld-Expo.
