A ONE-OFF: Unique to Malaga, trying Malaga's Sweet Wine called 'Malaga Dulce' is a must. They also have an outstanding variety of tapas. Young people usually have a couple of small glasses of Malaga Dulce after dinner and right before their night out. You may continue to your first cocktail of the night at La Terraza de la Alcazaba.

FISH: A must, iconic to Málaga, famous for its ‘Fish Show’. They show you and call out the speciality fish dishes and charge you based on the number of empty plates you left on your table. Unique, friendly and fun place to have Malaga's 'Pescaíto frito' (fried fish) and 'espetos de sardinas' (barbecued sardines). They also serve ‘boquerones (whitebait), calamares, calamaritos, chopitos, salmonetes, pescadillas, almejas, navajas, gambas, mejillones, conchas finas, huevas’ and 3-4 types of salad and roasted vegetables. Great for kids too. Plenty of traditional desserts as well.

This is the most famous ice cream shop in Malaga. The location is in a humble borough though quite far away from the city centre. Phone them to book your ice cream cake to take away, I would definitely do that as their queues are endless... You get a number and can wait for 15 min easily. The wait is still worth it though. I recommend to phone them and order a small Carapino Ice Cream Frozen Cake (cream, pine nuts & caramel) to take away. The area is not the nicest in the city, there are better places to eat your treat but no better ice cream shops. Collect it and eat it at apartment terrace with friends on a special occasion.
