Casa Verde

The homey Italian restaurant nestled within Singapore Botanic Gardens emerges from its month-long renovation, introducing iconic local foods to its menu. In the day, diners may scarf down Singaporean favourites such as mee siam ($9.50) and nasi lemak ($12.50) apart from the staple Italian plates. When night falls, Casa Verde becomes a trattoria, serving up pastas ranging from aglio olio ($18) to squid ink tagliatelle ($28), twelve-inch pizzas ($22), and mains such as grilled king prawns with potatoes ($32), and seafood stew ($25).
