Authentic Italian treat by Armani

The Emporio Armani Caffe at The Galleria Mall on Al Maryah Island is a chic eatery that is perfect for hanging out with friends.

The modern décor is well-spaced out, and the seating can accommodate big groups. Having said that, the cafe is in no way uninviting to romantic or discreet diners who want a quiet corner.

The authentic Italian dishes can also be savoured at the outdoor dining space that offers stunning views of the sea.

What strikes you soon after you sit down for dinner is their unending list of mocktails. It was difficult for my dining partner and me to zero in on their best drink, so we went by their recommendation.

What arrived at the table was a strawberry and litchi based mocktail served in a tall glass and it was lip-smacking good.

This was followed by items from the starters section. We went for the crispy breaded porcini mushroom served with mashed potatoes, rocket salad with parmesan shavings (Dh80) and Burrata Con Caponata or Sicilian aubergine salad (Dh85).
