Spice me up, Málaga! 🍛

December 2, 2021 No Comments

After 3 hours of walking along El Caminito del Rey, we drove back to Málaga etc., where we could jump off if we wanted to do so. When we arrived at Málaga, I therefore decided to jump off the bus, because I thought of eating there. I hadn’t eaten the whole day, but got some water, so I was litterally starving 😂

I decided to go to The Great India at Plaza de la Solidaridad, nearby the Málaga Alameda Centro, which has got some good reviews on Tripadvisor. And I actually liked the food pretty much!

I got some pappadum and some chutney/pickles, and I got a baingan bhartha with rice for main. Really good!

Hereafter I went for shopping at El Corte Inglés. I found out, that being a tourist you can get a Discount Card, that you can use within a week. By using the card I got 10% discount for my first purchase, and 5% for the following purchases. the customer service at any El Corte Inglés shop by showing them your passport or your ID proof ☺️

And then back to Fuengirola by the C1 train ☺️

Easily Distracted by Thai Food á la Fuengirola

Yep, Thai it is. Because no one has ever said “no” to Thai food. Right? 😄

I love spicy food. My favourite kitchen is of course the Tamil-Ceylonese kitchen, and my second most favourite kitchen is – Thai. Of course 😏 Thai food is just amazing, and reminds me pretty much of Ceylon Tamil food because of the spices and the coconut milk. Yet, there are still some differences, which makes them unique. Serve me Tamil and Thai food. I’ll be happy 😅

Cantina Mariachi – Mexican in Fuengirola

Did you know it’s actually pronounced Fu-en-hi-ro-la? Neither I, so I was happy when a native from Fuengirola corrected me 🙂

If you ever plan to travel to Andalucia, you can stay in Fuengirola. It’s much cheaper than Málaga, and there is this C1 train from Fuengirola to Málaga 3 times an hour, and it only takes 30 min. I loved this travel, because you get to see Costa del Sol throughout the travel by train. I did this every day, and some days even 2-3 times. Hehe 😉

Can you see the cute parrots here? 😉

Okay. After that walking through in Fuengirola to CC Miramar and some hours at the beach, we were of course hungry. My brother asked me if I was in mood for Mexican food. I was like “ehm, maybe”, but could feel he really wanted Mexican food for dinner, and I didn’t want to spoil anything, so I said ok. He took me to one of his favourite Mexican restaurants, Cantina Mariachi, at Calle Larga, and promised that I wouldn’t regret. And I didn’t. I came back few days later 😉

We both went for his favourite dish – an XL burrito in a vegetarian version, they made for us. It was sooooo good. Yummmm.

Also the staff is friendly and talkative. You feel like you’ve known them for ages!

The good part is that this restaurant (and many others) are located only 5 minutes by walk from my brother’s apartment. And Calle Larga definitely a great spot for dining!

Then we went to Plaza de la Constitucion. This place is indeed one of my favourite spots in Fuengirola. I am really looking forward to go back. Pl. de la Constituion is like a place for socializing it seems, and it happens just in front of the church.

As long as I was there, something happened every evening – concerts, live shows, etc., and the atmosphere was so cozy.

Andalucía, you beauty! ;)

I just returned from a much-needed holiday in Andalucia. I recently went to Fuengirola (Málaga), as my brother lived there at that moment. I hadn’t seen him since august 2021, so I was pretty much excited to see him again – and of course travel and get away from a litterally depressing period in mu life! Andalucía was what I really needed, and I don’t regret it at all.

Travelling alone is always fun to me, because I’m an introvert, and I actually love my own company 😉 Of course, I was visiting my brother and I was going to stay with him, but I was travelling alone, as he was working at that time. I was totally okay with that. Had it been 10 years back I wouldn’t have done this, but now I feel so comfortable going alone in unknown places, and I’m actually not scared.
