Catalan restaurant designing dessert to taste like a Messi goal

Madrid - A leading Catalan restaurant is busy designing a dessert to taste like a goal of Barcelona idol Lionel Messi, according to sports daily Marca on Friday.

Jordi Roca - one of the three brothers who own the Celler de Can Roca restaurant in the Catalan town of Girona - is quoted by Marca as saying that "we are working on an idea, on making a dessert like one of Messi's goals."

The Celler de Can Roca is one of Girona's most popular restaurants, and is rated with three stars by Michelin.

"Anything can motivate one of our dishes," said Roca, who declined to give more details about the forthcoming Messi dessert, which he has been working on for six months now.

Roca hinted that he will invite Messi to Girona to try the dessert that will carry his name.

Messi, 22, is in astonishing form right now.

The little Argentine has scored 31 goals in all competitions this season, winning the FIFA World Player and European Footballer of the Year awards in the process.

In 2009 he guided Barca to a record-breaking haul of six trophies, scoring vital goals in the finals of the Champions League, the World Club Cup and the Spanish King's Cup.

On Wednesday he cemented his status as the idol of the Barca fans by scoring two goals in the 4-0 destruction of Vfb Stuttgart, which puts the Catalans into the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
