ANDALUCÍA - MÁLAGA - LA COSMOPOLITA MALAGUEÑA
LA COSMOPOLITA MALAGUEÑA Michelin Plate IIO
This place is a great little spot just off the calle Granada in the centre of Málaga old town.
The decor is very clean, with a traditional twist. You can have tapas at the bar or sit in the main restaurant. There is also an outside terrace for warm evenings.
We returned one evening in January 2020 for a few late night tapas at the bar, where we enjoyed
Ensalada Rusa (Russian Salad)
Bacalao (deep fried cod)
Albóndigas de cola de toro en salsa (bull tail meatballs in gravy)
Tres Picos wine from Campo de Borja
This was followed by Queso Reserva de Familia
Tarta de queso (cheesecake)
Service was extremely friendly and helpful, including other information we needed to know about Málaga.
We had been before and enjoyed the following meal.
The menu is fairly short but all the dishes are very good. Try:-
Patatas y cebolla roja con una copa de vino blanco de Rueda (potatoes, red onion with a glass of white Rueda wine)
Pil-pil huevos rotos con gambas (pil-pil scrambled eggs with prawns)
Camarones con yema de huevo (small deep fried shrimp with egg yolk)
Sardinas con ali-oli (sardines with garlic mayonnaise)
Albóndigas de cola de toro en salsa (bull tail meatballs in gravy)
Médula de buey con tartar de gambas (ox marrow with shrimp tartar)
Salmonete confitado en grasa de vaca y ragú de higaditos de pichón (red mullet confit in lard & ragout of pigeon livers)
Another must try are the pan de cristal, these are wonderful, long chapata styled bread, scooped out and then filled with delicious fish or meat and then toasted.
Very good desserts are available like
Pastel de limón (lime cake) Málaga mousse (Málaga mousse)
The ambiance is extremely pleasant and the service, warm, friendly and also efficient and knowledgeable. The menu changes monthly and partly every day depending on what the chef has seen the market that morning.
There is also a short but excellent wine list and good cocktails and beers served at the bar.
