Tastings include:

- Pescadito frito: a culinary treasure from Andalusia, showcasing the region’s love for fresh seafood. This dish features a delightful assortment of small fish—often including tiny whitebait and succulent anchovies—lightly battered and fried to golden perfection. The result is a crispy, addictive treat that’s bursting with ocean flavor!
- Anchovies in vinegar: the locals eat tons of anchovies per year. So, they are also named "boquerones", that is a Spanish name for anchovies.
- Pincho de pulpo: a delicious skewer of tender, grilled octopus, perfectly seasoned with olive oil, sea salt and often paprika. A simple, flavorful bite that captures the essence of the Mediterranean.
- Meatballs in tomato sauce: albóndigas en salsa are succulent meatballs bathed in a rich, savory tomato-based sauce, a comforting dish that’s a staple of Spanish cuisine. Tender and flavorful, these little bites of perfection are infused with herbs and spices, making each mouthful a satisfying blend of warmth and depth.
- Carrillada or chivo malagueño: carrillada de carne is a melt-in-your-mouth delicacy made from slow-braised pork or beef cheeks, cooked until tender and infused with rich, savory flavors. The meat is so tender it practically falls apart, absorbing the deep, aromatic sauce—usually made with wine, garlic, and spices—that surrounds it. Chivo Malagueño is a delicious Andalusian specialty made from tender, slow-cooked goat meat, renowned for its rich, gamey flavor. Marinated in local spices and often simmered with vegetables, this dish captures the essence of Málaga’s countryside.
- Russian salad: every traditional Spanish cookbook has an ensaladilla rusa recipe. This Russian potato salad recipe includes peas, carrots and tuna, dressed with homemade mayonnaise. Sometimes shrimps and hard-boiled eggs are added, too.
- Locas de Malaga or Pionono: locas de Málaga are irresistible Andalusian pastries with a crispy, golden exterior and a creamy, whipped filling. Their sweet, airy texture and rich flavor make them a delightful, must-try treat from the heart of Málaga, while Pionono is a traditional dessert made of soft, syrup-soaked sponge cake rolled with creamy custard and a hint of cinnamon. Sweet, light, and utterly delicious, it’s a true taste of Andalusia in every bite.
