Back on curfew here in Spain

Restrictions in Malaga

After loosening restrictions for Christmas and 3 Kings celebrations here in Malaga, the authorities have now put restrictions back in place that will see us on a 10pm curfew with restaurants and bars closing at 6pm. 

We haven't been out in ages preferring to eat on our balcony with just the two of us. However, this weekend we did eat out in two restaurants - El Meson de Cervantes and Casa Lola.

El Meson de Cervantes

We had eaten in El Meson de Cervantes back in February before there was any major talk of Covid and restrictions when we first visited Malaga in order to find and rent an apartment for the year. We both really enjoyed our first visit to this restaurant, it had a great ambiance and the food was excellent. We probably over ordered on our first visit because we were unused to eating tapas style but on this visit we knew to order a few small or medium tapas and then add more if we needed.

One of the really interesting dishes we had was this black pudding one with sweet potato - really good!

But this was my favourite - battered prawns with treacle. Oh dear lord, so so good!!

Casa Lola

Then the night after we visited our favourite Casa Lola where we had our usual order of Russian Salad along with a few other tapas including Prawns Pil-Pil which were amazing!

And now we are in a restricted situation so it's nice to have the memories of these evenings out.......and of course as the vaccination is rolled out across the population restaurants will open up again in the evening and we will get back out for nice meals. It's something to look forward to!
