Book NowAbout Somma Restaurant
Somma reimagines southern Italian dining inside New Bahru with artful tasting courses rooted in the soulful traditions of Puglia. The experience begins at the door with welcoming pours and snacks before you ever step foot at your table. Chef Mirko channels the spirit of cucina povera into ambitious modern plates—a delicate corn consommé, layered artichoke, and a signature spaghettone finished with roasted eggplant cracked tableside. Mid-meal, diners detour into a dedicated cheese cellar where house-infused Italian wedges come paired with tailored alcoholic pours. Crisp regional whites and structured reds keep the pacing buoyant, turning heritage technique into an unhurried, comfortable evening.
