Nova’s Contemporary Island Cuisine
A fresh chapter unfolds at Nova, where flavour, nature, and mindful living come together through Contemporary Island Cuisine. Rooted in the rhythms of the Maldives, this plant-based concept celebrates a growing global shift toward conscious dining. Each dish draws from island traditions, reimagined with care, inviting guests to experience something nourishing, thoughtful, and deeply connected to place.
Rooted in Nature, Guided by Care
At the heart of this culinary journey is a commitment to sustainability and local sourcing. Fresh ingredients are gathered from islanders and nearby producers, shaping dishes that honour both heritage and environment. From green mango with toasted coconut to heritage pumpkin soup, each creation reflects a balance of flavour, texture, and intention, bringing Maldivian ingredients into a refined, contemporary light.

A Menu Shaped by Island Life
Across Nova’s dining spaces, including Soul Kitchen, the menu unfolds through 12 carefully curated dishes, from vibrant starters to comforting mains and indulgent desserts. Highlights include breadfruit wellington, plantain gnocchi, and cassava brownies, each crafted with precision and creativity. This collection offers a new way to explore island cuisine, shaped by simplicity, seasonality, and a sense of connection.

Savour What Feels Good
Contemporary Island Cuisine invites you to slow down and savour each moment. Here, every dish feels good, for you and for the island.
