Citorah says

Dani Carnero, the chef at Kaleja, also runs this more casual place, with an open kitchen, and Michelin says it’s committed to transparency about its produce and where it comes from. Michelin recommends eating at the bar and ordering the hake salad.

    Kaleja

    Citorah says Kaleja is the Sephardic word for “alley”, Michelin notes, and the restaurant is in Málaga’s old Jewish quarter, a few steps from the Picasso Museum. The chef, Dani Carnero, revives traditional Andalusian recipes, cooking slowly over hot coals in what the restaurant calls “candle cooking”.

    Blossom

    Citorah says The chef, Emi Schobert, is from Buenos Aires, and Michelin describes the cooking as contemporary, with South American touches. There are two tasting menus: Esencia, at €140 a head (€75 with wine pairing), and Confluencia, at €190 (€95 pairing). Allow about three hours.

    The catch Blossom recommends smart casual dress, and doesn’t recommend bringing children.

  • Museum

    Museo de Málaga

    Citorah says The Museo de Málaga fills the Palacio de la Aduana, the late-18th-century customs house on Plaza Aduana, and opened there on 12 December 2016. It has two sections, fine arts and archaeology, with more than 15,000 pieces between them. The archaeology section’s core comes from the Alcazaba’s excavations, including glazed Hispano-Muslim ceramics, and from the old Museo Loringiano, the collection the Marquises of Casa-Loring built up after a find in Málaga in 1851. For EU citizens, it’s the best free hour in the city.

  • Museum

    Museo Picasso Málaga

    Citorah says The Museo Picasso Málaga fills the Palacio de Buenavista, Calle San Agustín 8, a 16th-century palace that mixes Renaissance and Mudéjar elements. The collection display, Structures of Invention, shows around 144 works from 1895 to 1972, hung so that work from different decades shares each gallery. Below the palace, Phoenician and Roman remains are on view, among them a Phoenician city wall from the early sixth century BC and vats from a Roman salt-fish factory. It’s the city’s essential museum for Picasso.
