Hajishirazu no Purple Haze:

It is said that Trussardi became a chef despite the protests of his father and brother ''Massimo''. He changed his name to "Antonio Trussardi" because of this, and his father ended up disinheriting him.

He made extensive studies in cuisines around the world, and is very proud and confident in the skills he accumulated. Some of these studies include Chinese medicinal arts, Amazonian medicine, and African herbs (as stated in Chapter 303: Let's Get Italian Food (1)). During his travels around the world he developed his Stand, Pearl Jam, allowing for much better cooking ability, but no one in his home country, Italy, recognized his new ability. Because he was too young he couldn't open his own restaurant there, so he traveled to Morioh where the competition between restaurants is more intense and his chances were greater.
