Maltese pastizzi – the loose translation would be a \u2018pea cake\u2019 or a \u2018cheese cake\u2019, depending on which filling you opt for – are the ultimate comfort food that you will have no problem finding.

The Maltese will give them a good run for their money, guaranteed. From variations on the Italian-born bruschetta (check out the ones served with Maltese sausage\u2026 to die for!) to platters featuring olives, capers, sun-dried tomatoes and the unique Maltese gbejna (cheeselet), your foodie experience will be one to remember.

But trust us when we say that nothing spells deliciousness as strongly as an expertly-prepared rabbit stew, accompanied by crispy fries. No-one quite knows how or why this became a thing in Maltese cuisine, but one thing\u2019s sure – those who try rabbit once will usually come back for more. Drop in at the rabbit cuisine capital of Malta, the charming village of Mgarr – top-notch fayre at very friendly prices.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” css=”.vc_custom_1632315271611{margin-top: 80px !important;margin-bottom: 32px !important;}”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”657″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” css=”.vc_custom_1632315187765{margin-bottom: 24px !important;}”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”4.

The fresh catch of the day will be expertly prepared and brought to your table in full glory. Want to impress with your knowledge? Ask for a cippullazz to share, by the weight. It may be a mouthful to pronounce, but it tastes sublime. The best way to enjoy it?

Cisk beer \ud83c\udf7b is something of a legend – ask for it by the pint, just make sure that you pronounce it \u2018chisk\u2019 as in church, and the bartender will be pretty well impressed. This beer, which is locally brewed, has drawn accolades from all over the world.<\/p>\n

    If you\u2019re not into beer, you do need to try out Kinnie \ud83e\udd64, the national soft beverage. A tantalising taste of bittersweet, citrusy flavours, there\u2019s nothing that quenches your thirst as satisfyingly as a chilled bottle of Kinnie.<\/p>\n

    Now, you might be wondering where to find all this good stuff.
