More Malaga

Forgot to mention, the most stand out breakfast in Malaga is La Recova, slice of toast on a bit of grease proof paper (like the tapas in La Cueva de 1900 - always worth a cana), 5 little pots, sort-of hummus, sopressata (similar to 'Nduja), pork paste, mashed banana and a sort of toffee marmalade! as well as some sliced tomatoes and a couple of grapes, there is also an adjoining craft shop and an art gallery upstairs, unmissable.

Although I love the Cervantes restaurants, and will always go back, staying in Soho, Meson Iberico is close and we went in a couple of times for a drink and tapas and we booked for a Friday night - highlight of the month, staff, service, food all exemplary, this sort of thing:

The profiteroles were free with the bill, food was spectacular and is on our must visit list here forever afterwards, same as Gabriel's Cervantes places.  Only a few days left, so feeling a bit sad :(

Happened upon a Sorolla exhibition that had just opened in El Palacio Episcopal de Málaga, unexpected and lovely.  The Revello de Toro Museum, was again great, his painting of women and girls is superb, plus his colours in something seemingly white.   
Museo Carmen Thyssen was good, some great seascapes and a good temporary exhibition on North Africa.  All three Museum / Galleries worth a visit


A couple of of other places, La Queseria, does what is says, great cheese with an excellent selection of great wines, another must for the next visit.  Uvedoble Taberna, San had this on her list and went last night, trendy, local, great wine and food, fancy going there for a meal next time.  Last place for now, Te Piko, just a little bar on Plaza Enrique Garcia-Herrera, but nice tapas and every time we have been, there is great music on, old-school rock and 70's & 80's

We went to Hasta los Andares a few times, great wine bar in  SoHo with a bit of  free tapas, usually great jamon or cheese, with some great racions of the same as well if you need it.  Always great for a last glass.
La esquinita del chupa y tira, a great little Italian deli / cafe / bar, just up from Plaza de la Mercad,  very good, there was also a decent brew pub on the same road, La Botica de Cerveza
