For 30 years, Culina has been at the culinary forefront curating the best flavours, tastes, sights and smells from the four corners of the world under its roof.

From its beginnings as a wholesale distributor of fine foods and wines in 1994 to the leading purveyor of specialty foods it is today, Culina has always been passionate about sharing the pleasures of fine gastronomy. With authenticity and quality as its guiding principles, Culina meticulously sources from sustainable farmers and growers, and artisanal producers with heritage and provenance to supply to more than 1000 trade partners in Singapore.

Acclaimed by the Financial Times in 2021 as one of the 50 greatest food stores in the world, its 15,000-sq ft flagship – a spacious high-ceilinged former British Army barracks– at the verdant Dempsey Hills remains a source of inspiration to professional chefs, home cooks and gourmands.  

This April, Culina, the ultimate playground for individuals who love to eat, cook, entertain and live a life well-lived, celebrates its 30th anniversary with its first overseas opening scheduled for the third quarter of 2024. Located at The Shoppes at Four Seasons Place, Culina Kuala Lumpur spans more than 1,700 square metres and will feature a market, bistro, bakery, and bar, with interiors by Paola Navone’s Milan-based OTTO Studio. The debut of the concept will inject fresh energy into the Kuala Lumpur culinary landscape, offering luxury brands and enticing new products to captivate food aficionados. 

On homeground, The Most Exceptional Feast, an exclusive one-day only event at Culina at COMO Dempsey,  marks the milestone. The spread will feature Margaret River sirloin, artisanal cheeses from Alléosse, hand-carved 5J jamon, and a range of delectable seafood. Available for lunch and dinner, the experience is priced at $316.80 per person, which includes an endless flow of Taittinger Champagne, premium wines and non-alcoholic beverages.
