The logo for ROTHKO, featuring the words 'Fire' and 'Ferment' with a flame icon in between, all in white on a black background.

Nestled in the heart of Sculptureum, the newly relaunched Rothko Restaurant celebrates the Art of Dining.

Guided by Head Chef Neil Sapitula, the menu blends multicultural influences, Neil’s Filipino heritage, and fermentation techniques to craft unique and imaginative dishes.

Signature offerings include wagyu steak cooked over coals and flavourful chicken feet, showcasing bold flavours and inventive combinations. Every plate promises a dining experience as vibrant and inspiring as its surroundings.

Traditional Japanese meal served on a wooden tray, including rice topped with cooked meat and green onions, soft-boiled eggs, fried chicken, sashimi, assorted small side dishes with vegetables and noodles, and slices of cake.

Hear Head Chef, Neil Sapitula, talk about what makes the Rothko experience unique.
