Inside
Martina’s Kitchen
An authentic celebration of heritage, flavor, and family in every dish we serve.
Martina, a slim Bibik, with big-permed hair, was lauded for her nuanced innovations in improvising traditional Peranakan dishes into healthier versions (to keep everyone) including herself in the household in shape.
At Martina's Kitchen, we do not do fusion. We follow Grandma Martina's legacy by reimagining traditional dishes as wholesome, everyday meals. Take our guilt-free "Babi Pongteh," for instance. Instead of the classic “too-bak” (pork) braised in fermented soybean paste, we reduce the former and use roasted chestnuts to create a similar umami flavour. It's a testament to how we modernise Peranakan cuisine without compromising its essence.

Dishing up Martina's sophisticated modern Peranakan creation to Bring About An Elevated Dining Experience
In the past, Peranakan gatherings were synonymous with whisky, brandy, and cigars. But as society embraces wellness, wine emerges as a convivial yet health-conscious alternative. And just as good food and drinks deserve good music, modern tunes gradually replace traditional ‘Pantun’. Similarly, Nyonya beaded shoes, once only worn with Nyonya Kebaya, are now stylishly paired with jeans or dresses, symbolizing a vibrant blend of tradition and modernity.
At Martina's Kitchen, we're serving up the flavours of British Malaya, reimagined for the modern table. It's a taste of who we are! So, let's set aside our phones and savour the simple pleasure of commensality. ‘Selamat Makan’ or ‘Enjoy your Meal’!
