In Torremolinos you can try all the popular dishes of the Costa del
Sol´s cuisine in particular and the Andalusian in general, not
forgetting the more than 250 international restaurants offering Italian,
German, English, Scandinavian, American, Indonesian, Chinese and Japanese
cuisine, making it possible to satisfy other tastes and palates.
Nevertheless it is at the beach restaurants known as Chiringuitos where
the visitor finds the most authentic dishes of the local cuisine, like
its fried fish known as pescaito frito, this name became a trademark
in la Carihuela in the early 60´s its paellas, coquinas, shellfish
soup, sardines, salt baked fish and the refreshing and nutritious gazpacho,
made with our local ingredients: olive oil, tomatoes, garlic, vinegar
and that special touch make it unique.
Other highly recommended typical dishes from Malaga are without doubt,
the roasted bell pepper salad, where the baked peppers are cut into
strips and mixed with a little onion and tomato, and later marinated
in oil, vinegar and salt; el adobo and fish with ali-oli. Among the
desserts special mention goes to the typical Tortas de Aceite de Torremolinos.
