“How Lionel Messi’s Arrival To Inter Miami Changed The Lives Of Latine Fans”.
Lionel Messi’s favorite restaurant in Miami, Prima Pasta, has garnered global attention and gained local recognition through viral moments during his frequent visits.
Lionel Messi’s Cafe Prima Pasta in Miami Beach, known for its disco music and dimmed red lights, was his latest visit in July last year, sparked one of his most memorable viral moments since arriving in America.
According to a report by The Athletic, in Miami, Prima Pasta was already a favorite establishment among locals, but it has since gained recognition as Messi’s preferred restaurant in the city.
When Messi and his family dined nearby at Prima Pasta in July, it garnered international attention as customers tried to keep things normal. That evening, Angelo Accion, 30, a bartender, told The Athletic, “Messi just strolled in through the front door.” “The patrons here were initially unaware that he had entered. Many of the patrons waited for him out back as soon as they saw him.”
The 57-year-old owner of Prima Pasta, Cea, disclosed that he owns guitars signed by famous artists like Eric Clapton, Lenny Kravitz, and René Pérez, better known as Residente.
Cea also possesses a guitar signed by the late Gustavo Cerati, an Argentine rock singer who was a frequent visitor at Prima Pasta before his passing in 2014. According to the claim, Cea has become friends with the Messi family and now possesses a Gibson guitar signed by No. 10 of Inter Miam.
“Leo is always very cool,” Cea said to The Athletic. “His family has been visiting for the past 12 years, but this was only his third visit.” He’s usually grinning and seems so at ease. Never an issue. Simply put, an awesome individual.”
Messi’s favorite food, according to Cea, is agnolotti Rosso, which is loaded pasta with ricotta cheese and spinach in a pink sauce.
The self-made barber
Miami-based Puerto Rican businessman Luis Andrés Rivera is sometimes referred to on social media as El Bori Barber. The summer before last, he changed his life by becoming Messi’s personal barber. The Wynwood location of Rivera’s Destiny Barber Studio is sleek and modern, with three black leather barber chairs and a carefully curated salsa music mix to add to the overall vibe. With reference to the nondisclosure agreement he signed with Messi’s organization, Rivera stays silent regarding his experiences.

The muralist who travels the world
Like Rivera, Maximiliano Bagnasco’s July 2023 experience with Messi will never be forgotten. Argentina’s Bagnasco, 42, is well known for painting the most well-known Messi mural in South Florida. One of the first famous people to observe the Messi mural in Bagnasco was David Beckham, who co-owns Inter Miami. When he stepped into Bagnasco’s crane for a Messi moment that went viral, the former Manchester United player created headlines of his own.
Around the world, Bagnasco has created several murals featuring Messi and Maradona. The Wynwood mural’s idea originated from a partnership between Bagnasco and the building’s owner, renowned Miami developer Gustavo Miculitzki, a 67-year-old Argentinean connected to Block Capital Group. “Gustavo came up with the idea,” Bragnasco said to The Athletic. “He wanted it to say, ‘Welcome to Miami.'” “Wynwood” was added. Gustavo said Messi should be grinning. We chose this design even though I had proposed a different one. It was about seeing Messi with Inter Miami and embracing him. Messi is the global champion here. That is the Messi that everyone adores and that we currently have.”
