La Mensa is an italian restaurant that specialises in its pasta. The concept of the restaurant is based on a fictional persona named La Mensa. La Mensa is a 24-year-old female, with an Italian father and a Singaporean mother.
She spent most of her childhood in italy with her father’s side of the family and moved to Singapore when she was 15 years old. La mensa, like her father, loves to cook. Therefore, growing up, she has always loved sundays. It’s the only day of the week when the whole family gets together to cook and dine.
Opening a restaurant has always been her dream. In this restaurant, she wishes to showcase her Italian heritage in her mother’s homeland.
The design drew inspiration from street coffee shops in Italy where nature-inspired textures and earthy colour palette make up the ambience of the space.
