Trip 4: Málaga, Tapeo & Vino Málaga………

During the last few years the city of Malaga has undergone a true revolution in catering that has converted it into a top gastronomic destination

In the traditional cuisine, the " pescaíto frito " (little fried fish) Go to fullsize imageplays an important role and no one can leave the city without having tasted it, as it is just too tempting: just the aroma that emanates from the bars and restaurants that prepare this dish will make your mouth water. Identical effect has the star of the coast, the "barbecued sardines on a stick".

During our tour of Malaga we will also practise what is known as "tapeo" , a clever formula that allows you to taste just about everything, and not out of gluttony, but, shall we say, out of culinary curiosity. Variety, they say, is the spice of life, so ask away - that´s what the "tapeo" are there for, and when you ask for " …one of…" it is almost invariably followed by "…and another of…" You will practice your Spanish in our excursion!

Following a visit to the town with a tapas lunch in a typical Restaurant in the centre of the city, we shall then go and visit “Bodega Quitapenas” the odest wine Bodega in Malaga where after an extensive visit we will also be able to taste some of their better wines.
