Taking place every year between September and December, the white truffle season is when this distinctive fungus grows in the heart of Alba, a town in northern Italy. Bringing the earthy aroma of white truffle from Italy to Dubai, Armani/Ristorante’s new menu starts with Ventresca, a Balfego Otoro tuna complemented with gold charcoal bread and truffle mayonnaise, followed by the Wagyu M-5, a stockyards beef tartare, mixed with pear ginger chutney and Parmigiano emulsion, both sure to tantalise the taste buds upon every bite.
For pasta lovers, the Casadinas awaits, a juicy lamb shoulder ravioli graced with chestnuts designed to delight every discerning foodie, while the Merluzzo, comprising poached black cod with creamy potato, taggiasca olive, and datterino tomato chutney, is an artistic culinary fusion sure to get the mouth watering. Finishing off the savoury creations is Anatra, a succulent duck breast confit topped with butternut squash and sprouts, an exquisite dish.
Adding to this culinary masterpiece is a special set of delightful desserts to end the meal on a sweet note. The Predessert, a delicate bergamote granita, which is gracefully mixed with edible flowers, is a vegan friendly masterpiece jam-packed with flavour. To conclude this culinary odyssey with a delightful taste of truffle, the Piemonte, a mouthwatering hazelnut mousse married with the flavours of dacquoise sponge and white truffle Chantilly is the perfect end to the adventure of taste sensations.
Masterfully curated by the restaurant’s talented chefs, the white truffle degustation menu is not only about fine dining, but also an invitation to experience the magnificence of Italian cuisine that transcends conventional expectations.

Pack nicotine alternatives
Smoking cessation isn’t a one-and-done thing; being out with friends—especially smokers—might exacerbate your cravings. Instead of giving in and asking for a smoke, tobacco-free alternatives can help tamp down those urges. Nicotine pouches are a great product for a night out. Most nicotine pouches come in cans, which allow users to experience nicotine satisfaction on the go. Another great option is nicotine patches, which have been around for decades as a quitting aid. Brands like Habitrol nicotine patches come with two or three-step programs over eight or twelve weeks, gradually lowering the nicotine dose after some time. all images ©
