Lionel Messi’s arrival in Major League Soccer (MLS) with Inter Miami is already beginning to bear commercial fruit off the field. The Argentine soccer phenom has formed an alliance with Hard Rock Caf\u00e9 to introduce his own sandwich at its restaurants and select Hard Rock International<\/a> casinos.<\/p>\n

Since it was announced the World Cup champion<\/a> would play for Inter Miami, the entire city has turned upside down to prepare for his arrival. Two murals with Messi’s face were painted in the famous Wynwood neighborhood. One is by local artist Arlex Campos and the other by Argentine Maximiliano Bagnasco. Guiding them both was Inter Miami coowner and retired soccer star David Beckham.<\/p>\n

This fever for Messi has reached the menus of local restaurants, as dishes have been added in tribute to him. However, it’s the striker himself who is leaving his mark on the culinary scene.<\/p>\n

Take a Bite of Messi<\/h2>\n

Entitled “Made For You by Leo Messi,” the dish seeks to highlight one of the most classic and popular cuisines in Argentina. It’s a sandwich made with a Milanese-style (breaded and fried) chicken breast, melted provolone cheese herb aioli, tomatoes, and arugula, all nestled between two slices of toasted artisan bread.<\/p>\n
