CHOLESTEROL: Do not eat carbs (rice, potatoes, pasta, bread, muffins, pastry, sugar, alcohol) for 2 weeks, and it will disappear (fat is not as important, but avoid animal fat too during the cleanse). If you add some day of fasting it will go away at least for a year. I ate sardines, salmon, onion, shrimp, sea bass (lubina), sea bream (dorada) with hot oil with fried garlic to finish them, "on their backs" (a la espalda), and fruits, mostly oranges, and drank lemonade (just lemon, water, and baking soda - bicarbonato sódico -), now some doctors recommend apple vinegar too. Basically I ate one onion with some fish a day, plus fruits and seeds - almonds, peanuts, sunflower or pumpkin seeds, nuts - the days I were anxious, and since then, even being very fat I have no high cholesterol. PS: I lived in Pedregalejo my childhood, and next time ask for "gambas al pil pil" in Bar el Pimpi Florida de El Palo (desde 1971) I do not know if it is childhood memories, but if it still exists, and serves the same "garlic shrimp" I suppose it will be good.

[@TheSpainExperience]

What a blast I had filming this with you James! Thanks so much for visiting Pedregalejo - come back soon! Hanni ☺️

[@spainrevealed]

Thank you for being such a great guide Hanni! Until the next one!

[@danrichards3602]

Hi are all the places open during the week ?

[@Fran-df6rh]

Gracias por hablar también de Andalucía, y su gastronomía de parte de un andaluz que dios los vendiga ❤❤❤❤

[@MikeS29]

So yummy. Hubby and I moving to Malaga late 2024, love that place! Thanks James and Hanni

[@kerrihowell7276]

Wishing you all the best for your choice of destination and enjoy 😊

[@tomstestkitchen]

Wow, Malaga has changed a lot since I was there in the late 80's.

[@TheSpainExperience]

A LOT!

[@cesarbahar786]

Hola, James, I have loved your video of Malaga with your English friend. You both are excellent. Make some more videos like this is really entertaining to watch and all the great food. 🥘 ❤️Spain. 🥰🤗

[@andreacatzel8259]

Oh oh oh! Yum! Divine! my kind of food! That sushi! Omg! Thanks for taking us there! ❤

[@scottcompany4040]

Just got back from Malaga. Spent a week there enjoying the incredible Christmas Lights. Also spent many hours in bars around the city eating amazing food and enjoying lovely wines, vermouths and cocktails. Our hotel on Calle Larios (Hotel Vincci Larios Diez) was in a perfect location as we were only a few minutes from hundreds of great places to eat. If we didn't have it in the hotel our breakfast was (of course) Churros & Hot Chocolate at Casa Aranda. We never had a meal or snack we didn't enjoy during our visit. Unfortunately we didn't get to the beach areas - that will be on our itinerary next time.

[@wendyurquia4034]

Well, I suppose I’m going to Malaga then. Thanks James & Hanni! 👍👏👌

[@JanG_GC]

Malaga is the next mini break I've planned with my husband. We had an Andalucian holiday for our 25th wedding anniversary (Cadiz, Jerez, Granada, Nerja) and I'm now obsessed! Seville and Cadiz (yep, again, it may be my new favourite place 😊) last January😅 Can't wait to get to Malaga next.

[@JoanUnterwegs]

Good choice, enjoy

[@PortageurCa]

Oh man, I have to go to Malaga now!

[@HomesickIberian]

Definitely watching this again before I come back home to Spain. I’m flying to Malaga and Madrid so I’m going to binge your videos.

[@jameshaddan8538]

Wow…just wow…all of that looked so magnificently delicious!!! And, of course, a Spanish G&T ….the absolute best!

[@danrichards3602]

Im off to malaga 26th feb can not wait. Ill do all these in a day if open during the week. Im there for 5 days mon-fri....

[@jamesbeech8643]

Hi James, love your videos especially when Spain’s food is involved! We like our food and wine when we are in Spain and as my cholesterol was high I started taking statins, now it has gone from 9.5 down to below 5……happy days😎

[@mick_gonzo]

Grilled sardines on the beach is my favourite memory of being in Malaga. Another level compared to a la plancha.

[@lynnkaye87]

We walked to Pedregalejo one Sunday in Jan this year. All the Chiringuitos were so busy we could not get a table, all fully booked. It was an amazing place to visit, so vibrant, we ended up just sitting with an ice cream on a wall watching the world go by.

[@TheSpainExperience]

Yes it can get pretty mad down there 😅☀️ But SUCH great atmosphere

[@padders1068]

Hanni and James, thanks for sharing, I'm now hungry and jealous but in a nice way! Much ❤ to you both

[@andrewmeasures2312]

Thank you James and Hanni for this great video. My mouth is watering seeing all this beautiful fresh fish and seafood. The Larios con tónica a perfect way to finish off a fantastic day.😀👍

[@HereBeBarr]

I have slightly high cholestrol too :( And it's even higher now just watching this 😂

[@carmenfernandez5234]

Everything looks scrumptious, even the few dishes that I wouldn't be willing to try. Your enthusiastic "degustación" comes right through to the viewer and makes this one of your most vivid videos. We're almost there with you and Hanni.

[@spainrevealed]

Thank you Carmen!

[@issarshojaee5438]

Thank you for this! I can't believe I didn't go to these places while I was there! But I will try them all next time - especially Misuto. Yum!

[@MartynCawse]

This is amazing and I have had personal experience of these places. Absolutely fantastic

[@Tech-vn1jv]

Another great video, keep them coming please.

[@MrsTerrebonne]

Thank you for another great video! We were in Sevillr and Malaga last June and loved it so much we are returning in May, adding Barcelona and Madrid to our trip. Your awesome videos make the wait even harder!!! Cheers from Montreal! ❤

[@Emy53]

When I was there in early October 2019, we didn't have a food experience. I was with a family group that didn't stop to eat as much as taking in the views. This is why I want to do my own thing when I return.

[@spainrevealed]

I hope you can get back soon!

[@nancygire6326]

Love Pedrogajelo! Sardines on the grill. Yum.. Thanks James for doing these videos and sharing them through email. We'll be there in March!

[@janisschwenke9233]

You and Hanni display so much enthusiasm and knowledge about the food choices you make and let us watch you enjoy. You are incredible ambassadors for local Spanish cuisine. Although we were in Malaga last April, we didn’t stray too far from the old town. This video makes me regret that and consider a side trip back there for chiringuito delights when in Seville next year. Fun video, James! Great chemistry with Hanni! ❤️

[@spainrevealed]

Thank you Janis!

[@spainrevealed]

Thanks Janis! We had a great time!

[@lindabuchan5855]

OMG I just love love love sea food & wished I was there, I live in Scotland so might try Malaga one year 👍😋

[@TheSpainExperience]

Super accessible from Scotland!

[@spainrevealed]

You should!

[@JoanUnterwegs]

My favourite dishes at 'el tintero' are almejas, gambas a la plancha and mejillones (all seafood really). When you go there after 1pm the waiters just come out with the dishes and you can take them instatly. Price is between 30-50€ per person.

[@MYTravelBF]

We spent a long weekend in Malaga back when we were living in Spain and wish we had seen this video back then, along with your other Malaga video! You hit up so many spots that looked local and delciious! As always we loved the video. Thanks, James!

[@spainrevealed]

Thank you guys!!

[@kerrihowell7276]

So glad you made another Malaga with Hanni tour! Live here and so happy to see you promoting and enjoying somewhere we will never take for granted 😊

[@hamishfunnell1250]

My wife and I are sitting at El Kiosko right now, based on your recommendation… it does not disappoint. Thank you.

[@TheSpainExperience]

Amazing!! Glad you enjoyed it 😍

[@annarosiak3128]

Oh Malaga! Such a great city! One of my favourites not only in Spain, but in all of Euope. We spent over a month there last year and now this delicious video really made me want to go back 🙂Actually, let me check the flights... 😄

[@atakan1268]

I love everything this country has to offer! thank you for letting us explore along!

[@viktoria8435]

Omg.. it was so perfect! 💚 Muchas gracias!

Hi James, great video of your food tour. My wife and will visit those places when we go to Malaga in Feb. 2024…..thanks

You couldn't have timed this better, I'm going to Malaga for new years. Thank you for your awesome content. I love your recommendations

Málaga amazing food and culture ; Alcazaba; Cathedral; Larios street etc; great museums ( the land of Picasso's) and magnificente beaches

[@TheSpainExperience]

🙌👏✈️☀️

[@albertomichelini4882]

merry christmas and happy new year, ciao

[@mizginavale22]

The paella "a la Alicante" really grabbed my attention and I can have vermouth as an aperitif or as a drink to accompany any dish. Vermouth is really a true addiction for me (I know that I repeat that all the time, but it's true). I've heard so many wonderful things about Malaga and the beachfront looks very nice. Frying foods is a quick way to feed folks but it doesn't support the health of my body. However, I would have ordered the calamari with pleasure. The sushi? I would have been in heaven over there. It looked amazing! You did a lot of work to bring this video to us. Thanks James for all your effort and attention to give us so much information and choices. I am always grateful to you. Feliz Navidad to you, Yoly and Lucia.

[@isabelrasmussen1302]

I love the videos with Hanni! I can’t wait to try some of these places

[@TheSpainExperience]

Thank you! 🥰

[@youngspiritsinging]

I had the best tapas in Malaga on the beach in 2019. I miss Malaga.

[@Kazaii64]

There's a special place called youtube: where you can watch the most delicious meals, in 4K, while you eat sweet chili heat doritos. I'm only 5 1/2 minutes in and I'm already in awe of this selection; I'm out of the closet for how delicious those sacks look.

[@spainrevealed]

haha, I hope the doritos were good!

[@johnmno]

Nacho cheese Doritos here

[@TheSpainExperience]

Everyone loves the sacks 😅

[@spainrevealed]

those doritos sound good too!

[@coulsonjackson]

I think you’re my favourite youtube person, I love Spain and everything you do. Keep up the good work.

[@Emy53]

James, I return to many of your videos I watched 4 years ago. Sometimes I run across them, and click. I learn something new every time I return, because I may have missed something.

Hola, Great video. We are looking forward to our upcoming trip to Malaga in April. We are so disappointed to see that the dates that we are in Malaga, Hanni is already booked. Do you have any other tapas/food tour guides in Malaga that you would recommend? Muchas gracias!

Muchas Gracias Hanni and James I love watching both your videos and this one about Pedregalejo has made more even more excited than I already was as I arrive in Malaga on Thursday and will definitely spend Xmas day in Pedregalejo /El Palo and now I'm gonna have to spend another day here 😂 to fit in all your stops .

Hi James & absolutely loved your Malaga food tour i found my self doing the eating movements with you as you eat the grilled sea bass how weirded is that ?

[@spainrevealed]

haha, not weird!

[@Simon-jj2pu]

The only time I have ever wanted to try Mijas again, this might do it. Here it is as it says on the tin, old dry breadcrumbs with something

[@TheSpainExperience]

They’re very hit and miss! But in taberna del puerto they’re a hit!

[@remifjelldal7299]

the really are epic

James, i wish w had known, we could of gone for a coffee - we are in malaga every day.

[@ThKostelac]

Wow amazing 😃🇩🇰

[@sorayaakhavi148]

Great video! Do you have a local contact in Malaga that does location/neighborhood scouting trips (like the woman in Valencia from your other video)?

[@sand7699]

Fabulous 🎉

[@lostfox27]

Such a tough life 😁😁😁

[@AdamBurianek92]

2 days ago I came back from Málaga. I've been staying in different neighborhood than those shown in video (Pacífico/Huelín) and here are my findings: Chiringuito Los Compadres (Paseo Marítimo Antonio Banderas) - absolutely AMAZING fish (swordfish, Saint Peter Rooster) and very decent sangría Tasca Láska (Av. Aurora) - Mediterranean restaurant founded by Slovak owner (I'm mentioning it because I'm from Slovakia, too), apparently rated quite highly by tourists Los Marangós (C/ Lario Molina) - The best of all that I've tried. Spanish cuisine at its finest. Los Compadres and Los Marangós are also accessible for wheelchairs, Tasca Láska only if you're sitting outside.

[@spainrevealed]

Thanks for the tips!

[@kenschestok9515]

I think I might have eaten at the 1st stop in 2005? regardless I visited a friend in that same neighborhood in '05 in my first visit to Spain ... that trip alone changed my life.. went again in '22 Spain is my long lost unrecognized by the "bloodlines" yada yada until you find the place that says "welcome home!" kinda thing thing..

[@VLesPaul]

Hey this is great ! We’re coming for a few days on New Year’s Day. Planning to follow in your footsteps! The best Malaga guides! Thank you! Do you think many places will be open 1st Jan? 😊🇪🇸🍤🐟🥘

[@TheSpainExperience]

It’s a bit hit and miss! It’s a public holiday but some beach restaurants and may be open as families like to go out for lunch. However, most are really bad at updating their opening hours on google etc so don’t rely on that being accurate. You might just have to take a chance. Try getting there on the early side (1pm) to scope it out and see if you can sneak in before the main lunchtime rush at 2.30-3pm.

[@spainrevealed]

1 January is a bit touch and go. Def call ahead

I wish this video would've came out 10 years ago when I visited Malaga. I had the worst paella I've ever tasted...the Picasso museum was great

Really interesting. Thanks. Those prices are per person, right? I don't think there's any way that you were showing the total bill. Thanks.

Zamburiñas with Ketchup, sorry but that's a no-no. They have to be served with lime or lemon. Also some bars put them in the microwave, if you see that, run! Thanks for the video, great as always.

It’s going to split the room for sure but I’d say don’t knock it until you’ve tried it! (They were also grilled with a LOT of garlic and oil)

I when I was young, I had a seafood paella in Valencia and was taken aback when the shrimp were whole! Now I prepare my own, as I don't like the idea of the poop sack not being removed. I still haven't sucked the head of a shrimp yet. Watch out for the clear needles you find in the seabass, bones aren't a problem. Spanish Mussels are my favorite seafood. As for Migas, the doctor can prescribe an ointment. (LOL).

[@Emy53]

I never had vermouth in Spain, and i don't particularly like the Martini and Rossi brand I have tried here in the US. When I return to Spain, in the near future, I will try a brand popular in Spain. Maybe before I head for home, I will have taken an appreciation for Vermouth.
