Known for: Cool poolside dining at one of Singapore’s top 5-star hotels and comforting Italian fare made from premium produce that are flown in from Italy.

Come back for: A tighter design edit gives Dolce Vita a fashionable look, befitting of its Italian identity (think classic Giorgio Armani). Guests are welcomed by a color palette of neutral tones like grey and brown, with details like black and white tile showpieces, stone finishes, granite countertops, and glass panels. Once you’ve taken in the beauty of the refurbished space, indulge in hearty Italian fare, which includes the Treccia Campana di Bufala (handmade buffalo mozzarella from Naples served with the perfect trio of condiments like sundried tomatoes, anchovies, and olive oil), Risotto with white asparagus, mimosa egg, and a surprising hint of yuzu, and the impressive Tagliata di Manzo (roasted US bone-in ribeye), which is served tableside and accompanied by the smoothest mashed potatoes you’ll ever have.
