Giorgio Armani took his last breath on September 4, and his demise at the age of 91 was confirmed by the Armani Group. While he was always known for his legacy in the world of couture, not many know that he equally celebrated food in his world of craft. In Mumbai's Jio World Plaza, Armani/Caffè manifests his culinary philosophy as creatively as his fashion.
For instance, the traditional Sicilian beccafico preparation features sardines stuffed with breadcrumbs, pine nuts and raisins, often baked with citrus and olive oil. Inspired by the indulgent diet of the beccafico songbird, the dish reflects Sicily’s layered culinary heritage – a melting pot shaped by centuries of Arab and Mediterranean influence, where bold contrasts and balanced flavours define its identity. And another instance of his craft and vision can be experienced in the refreshing dessert of Miyazaki mango and passion fruit sorbet, crowned with fresh mango and centred around a light ricotta mousse filled with citrus jelly. A vibrant sauce of mango, passion fruit and papaya adds tropical depth, while crisp meringue and passion fruit seeds lend texture. Finished with thyme and edible flowers for a fragrant flourish.

Apart from this, from the minestrone to Roman-style pizzas with rice-flour crusts, pasta tossed with aglio e olio clams, beetroot carpaccio over seaweed fritters, the dishes speak volumes of his vision which are served in a setting defined by soothing blues and greens, discreet motifs and perfect calm.
And at the Armani Hotel in the Burj Khalifa, Armani /Amal offers a different expression of Armani’s vision through the lens of regional Indian cuisine. It is reported that the menu here celebrates Indian culinary heritage via curries and specialties prepared tableside.
While his death marks the end of an era, his legacy is going to continue through tasteful plates as part of cherished moments of joy of patrons in Armani/Caffè in Mumbai and Armani/Amal in Dubai.
