Tips for Gastronomy

Platos que Debes Probar

Don't leave without trying the 'Espetos de Sardinas', the 'Pescaíto Frito', the 'Porra Antequerana' and the sweet Malaga wine.

The Espeto Ritual

The best espetos are eaten in the beach bars on the beaches of Pedregalejo and El Palo. Look for them in a boat with sand. They eat with their hands.

Order a 'Smurf' for Breakfast

A 'smurf' is a small bread muffin, the quintessential Malaga breakfast. Order it 'mixed' (ham and cheese) or 'with oil and tomato'.
