Ocean Restaurant™
Not an obvious choice for a meal for those on a diet, but this picturesque, seafood-centric restaurant at Resorts World Sentosa is known for serving only the finest, sustainable seafood and the cuisine is Californian-Mediterranean.
The flavours are seasonal, fresh, and the dishes allow the produce to shine. Such as the Double Boiled Sakura Chicken Essence served with wilted spinach, straits seashells and wolfberries, or the Steamed Kuhlbarra Seabass served with mussels, organic greens and imperial soy sauce. Ask for a table facing the glass panels — they're the best seats in the house.

Co+Nut+Ink
While out and about on the island, should you need a refreshing beverage, here is something that is a welcome, sweet respite that is refreshing and tropical — and healthy!
Order yourself a Fresh Coconut Water with coconut flesh, or a Coconut Shake where they blend pure coconut water and coconut meat. Even their desserts and dessert drinks are healthier. It is all made with tropical fruits (pineapple, durian, avocado), nuts and real coconut ice-cream. Try them all, as prices begin at an affordable $4.

The Knolls
What is usually a top choice for free-flow champagne brunches, and indulgent breakfast buffets, may not be an obvious choice for a healthy meal. However, Capella Singapore's all-day restaurant has some beautiful and nourishing plates on offer.
The salads here are far from ordinary, case-in-point the Capella Gourmet Mesclun Salad which is accented with Norwegian smoked salmon, ikura, boiled egg, sweet corn, heirloom cherry tomato and a balsamic dressing. Mains here boast luxurious flavour pairings: the Steamed Atlantic Cod served with stewed cabbage baby squid, lobster emulsion and crisp leeks. With a view of the South China Sea beyond, all of this makes it a feast for all the senses.

Joe & the Juice
Easily a top choice for staycationers and residents in the Sentosa Cove area, Joe & the Juice is known for their zesty, fresh juice concoctions. It is the yummiest way to get your 5-a-day in. Top choices are Joe's AMG (apple, mint and ginger) and Joe's Identity (cucumber, kale, broccoli, spinach and lemon).
They also serve vegan yoghurt bowls, acai bowls, and a variety of coffee-based drinks.
