It's not uncommon to find jewelry pieces that have been inspired by food, but you're less likely to find meals that take inspiration from jewelry, as with this Ritz-Carlton gourmet food collection. At the Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong, the hotel is celebrating the 90th anniversary of the Damiani brand with a five-course meal that takes cues from Damiani's bejeweled bracelets, earrings and necklaces.
To replicate the luxury of each jewelry piece, fine ingredients like cured salmon, beluga caviar and white snail caviar are used in the dishes. The inspiration from each piece of jewelry is easily seen with the way the The Damiani 90th Anniversary Celebration dishes are presented. The menu costs about $240 per person, although there is a special package being offered that pairs this decadent meal with a Deluxe Suite.
