For anyone wondering why Carluccio’s has gone golden, this isn’t their first foray into edible opulence. Earlier this year, they introduced a 23K Gold Pizza and a Gold Cappuccino, bringing a glitzy twist to their classic menu. Their golden pizza features smoked cheese, black truffle, and creamy burrata, all elevated by a delicate layer of edible gold. And the gold cappuccino? A rich, foamy treat that pairs perfectly with the pizza for a dining experience that feels like pure indulgence.
The 23K Gold Risotto alla Milanese follows suit, celebrating UAE National Day with an added sparkle. Saffron, a prized ingredient in both Italian and Middle Eastern cuisines, forms the heart of the risotto. It’s creamy, aromatic, and bursting with flavour. Paired with the lamb kofta and that luxe 23K gold leaf garnish, it’s a meal that’s every bit as special as the occasion.

Let’s break down the flavours. The Risotto alla Milanese is Carluccio’s ode to the classic Italian dish but with a twist for Dubai. The risotto is rich with saffron, adding a golden hue and a slightly earthy, sweet flavour that complements the creamy rice. Topping it all is a juicy, perfectly spiced lamb kofta, which brings a bold Middle Eastern influence to the dish. And, of course, the crown jewel is that 23K gold leaf, it’s a glamorous finishing touch that brings the spirit of UAE National Day to life on your plate.
Priced at AED 109, this luxurious creation offers fantastic value for those looking to celebrate the UAE’s heritage with an Italian twist. Plus, it’s Instagram gold! For seven days only, Carluccio’s diners can enjoy this limited-edition dish at Dubai Mall, Dubai Marina Mall, and Arabian Ranches locations.
