A very good quality of tapas and a good quality of interior there are a lot of space on the street too. A very big choice in buffet, and waiter each 3 minutes will introduce and offer you new tapas. I really like camembert fries - "camembert frita", as well as lamb kebab - "pinchitos de cordero", you can order these dishes from the waiter and restaurant will prepare them personally for you

A very popular place, I recommend to get a table in the garden near the trees (the entrance from calle Alcazabilla): from this place there are beautiful views to the Roman theatre and Alcazaba. Also I recommend you to go inside and see the interior with the photos of famous people there and to touch the atmosphere of old Malaga: to come from one entrance from calle Alcazabilla and to leave from another on the calle Granada. A varied menu: tapas, hamon, oysters, beef, anchovies and other fish of fries

Mercado Central Atarazanas. I strongly advise you to visit the market from 10 am to 3 pm, this is a well-known object of architecture where you can buy delicious fruits, seafood, meat, I also like the street in front of the central entrance is full of seafood cheap restaurants. Here you will get fresh seafood, paella, and many different dishes. I prefer a restaurant that is located near the left gate if you look at the central entrance. The waiter Manolo with a mustache like Salvador Dali had. The best paella they have, also I recommend to try eggplant or grilled vegetables, shish kebab from octopus, or shrimp and stingray, the menu of this restaurant is in your apartment

One of the oldest bars in Malaga, which sells wine from its own winery, the most popular wine "Pajarete", the wine is poured into glasses directly from the old oak barrels, the waiters write the bill with chalk on the bar board, the aroma of the wine flowing in the bar adds authenticity and atmosphere.

A typical Spanish tavern from the province of Cadiz. The gastronomy of Cadiz would not be the whole without its shrimp tortillas, yellow salad, and fresh shrimps. Noisy and cheerful atmosphere, good light wine from Cadiz, we like their Chardonnay Miguel Domecq “Entrechuelos” with shrimp tortillas – excellent choice.

A spacious restaurant with a huge selection of wine and not a standard kitchen. European and Latin American traditions are mixed here, very tasty and unusual. We especially like chili crab here, and duck breast on a pillow of rice with nuts, and dessert caramel passion can be eaten endlessly. There are several halls inside the restaurant and several 5 tables outside. Reservations are required in summer time.

Sightseeing
Castillo Gibralfaro is an interesting place with the excellent views, but it's hard to climb there on foot, I advise you to take the bus 35 to the Paseo del Parque street and drive to the final stop directly to the castle. And then you can walk down to Alcazaba on foot

Alcazaba is a very interesting and informative place, very easy to reach it, just a few steps up. There is an elevator in from the back side. At the conclusion of the excursion I advise to stop in a cafe with beautiful views of the sea, the landscape and walls of Alcazaba and fix this impression: a glass of wine with olives or a cup of coffee or ice cream for children will help you to receive the maximum excellent emotions.
