Among the many restaurants that line Sentosa Cove, is a bustling Cuban-Spanish restaurant. We would recommend Paradiso as a good dining option for those looking for a more affordable meal in this “posh” area. The menu offers something for everyone. There is wide array of Cuban tapas & paellas and also a variety of familiar pastas and sandwiches. Be sure to make reservations if you’re coming on a Friday or Saturday night because the place quickly gets packed.
DESCRIBED IN ONE WORD
Passionate – They managed to capture the South American flair.
Vibrant – Everything from the interiors to the food is full of life!
FAVORITE DISH
Pollo y Chorizo en Crema de Tomate – Homey. Rugged. Spicy. Salty. Delicious.
Pollo y Chorizo en Crema de Tomate – Both the mild flavors of the chicken and the bold flavors of the chorizo made a nice compliment to our Paella Valenciana.
MOST LOVED/UNLOVED
There aren’t many restaurants in Singapore that serve Latin American food, so was really pleased to be dining in one. Atmosphere was very lively and colorful, very latin – I like.
We were a bit disappointed that the Tapas did not come with bread. You could order french bread ala carte but only as an entire loaf. Would’ve appreciated a few slices of toasty bread to come on the side.
UNIQUE-NESS
Their food reminded me of uncle’s cooking – the type of food you would have in the summer with all the relatives, and cousins when out on a beach trip. Comfort food. Maybe because it reminded me of Filipino-Spanish food.
This was the perfect type of cuisine to enjoy outdoors. Having South American food with a view of the water is just perfect! The tastes are simple and homey yet gourmet enough to enjoy while “yacht-watching.”
COMING BACK SOON?
Yes but it has to compete with the other amazing restaurants lining Sentosa Cove – like Sabio by the Sea right next to it. (Catch our Sabio entry!)
Yes…. after we try all the other restaurants on that stretch. 😉
