The first stand-out restaurant guests will encounter as they enter The Sixteenth, La Favorita, recalls the flamboyance of Italian opera houses in the 1960s with eccentric and textured interiors reminiscent of faded, Italian grandeur, replete with graphic carpets, ornamented ledges, dramatic drapes and bespoke lighting fixtures.

The cuisine revolves around large-format Italian classics, some of which are nostalgic favourites from past decades. Food presentation is fun and grandiose, using oversized vessels individually hand painted by Italian artisans. From handmade pasta dishes such as Lobster Tagliatelle and Cheese Wheel al Tartufo, to hearty proteins such as Turbot al Cartoccio and a show stopping 1kg Bistecca alla Fiorentina – the meal by itself is theatrical.

The beverage menu features decadent cocktails from the 1960s, with a wine list that takes guests through a journey of Italian varietals. Discover up to 15 types of grapes, including celebrated ‘Super Tuscans.’

Open for lunch and dinner from 11:30 – 14:30 and 17:30 – 22:00 daily, La Favorita will delight guests with unparalleled exuberance for hearty Italian fare set within an outlandish and visually exciting environment.
