Last month izi and I went to visit the Mediterranean island of Malta for a week
and both being chefs we were very excited to go and see what Malta had to offer
and we were not disappointed. We stayed in Saint Paul’s bay but often ate at Bugibba
as well as travelling to Valetta Sliema and Gozo and trying lots of food along
the way. Even if it was just a stop off for a patizzi on the way we had a great
time and tried lots of food.
The Maltese cuisine is very much influenced on Italian foods
particularly Sicily and the south, as well as Spanish, French and English foods.
Some of our favourite meals in Malta were Bragioli , spaghetti with
rabbit sauce and lampuki.
We loved all the bread and cheese too especially Gozo cheese
which we had to bring some back home with us. Some of the places we visited included Da Rosi, Malet and also
a lovely sushi bar in Sliema.
On our final night we decided to go for a real treat and
visited a restaurant called Tarragon, this way by far the highlight of our dining
experience and although not the cheapest meal we have had it was worth every
penny or cent as the case was.
