Spain | Malaga Michelin la Cosmo

🍽️ La Cosmo: Málaga’s 2023 Michelin Gem—Red & White Vibes, Flexible Schedules, and Surprising Value Nestled in Málaga’s city center, La Cosmo (a 2023 Michelin-listed spot) is a charmer with its sleek red-and-white decor—right up my alley! 🎨 Booking is a breeze via Google, and in the off-season, tables are easy to snag. What’s great? Super flexible time slots: starting at 1:30 PM, with 15-minute gaps, all the way until 11:30 PM. Perfect for travelers! 🪑 Where to Sit? Tons of Choices! The dining areas are versatile: Pull up to the counter like a bar for a casual vibe. Sit across from the open kitchen to watch chefs cook. Relax in the main dining area near the entrance for coziness. No matter where you pick, that red-and-white palette keeps things bright and welcoming. 😊 📋 Menu Wins: Plan & Budget Easy Unlike some Michelin spots with daily changing menus, La Cosmo’s dishes are on their website—prices clear, no surprises! 📲 Great for planners or anyone watching their budget. 🍴 The Food: Hits, Misses, & Must-Tries Let’s dive in: Starters: La Mortadella: The ham itself was just okay, but pair it with the zesty lime sauce and fresh-baked house bread? Chef’s kiss. So good! Oysters (two styles): Fresh, smooth, and delicious. Seafood lovers, don’t skip! � oyster Mains: The Deer (venison): Too salty—even the mushrooms tasted like salt. Disappointing. 😕 Bread Entrecote: Yum! Crispy bread outside, tender meat inside, plus flaky sea salt. Solid choice. Pro tips: Neighbors loved the Fried Sea Bass, and raves about the duck breast. Add these next time! 🦆 Desserts: El Flan: A Spanish classic! Silky, with caramel and crunchy corn syrup bits. If you love pudding, you’ll adore this. 🍮 Chocolate Cake: Surprising! The base has a cheesy tang, the chocolate is fudgy (firmer than mousse), and ice cream balances it all. Perfect combo. 🍫 Bonus: House bread—warm, crusty, and endless. It’s a fixed charge per person, but servers keep refilling until mains end. Worth it! 🍞 💡 Final Take Is it top-tier Michelin? Not quite—the plating and flavors are a bit underwhelming. But for the price? It’s a steal! Plus, they’re great for sharing—just ask, and they’ll split dishes so you can try everything. If you’re in Málaga, give it a shot. And next time in Spain? Hit San Sebastián—home to the most Michelin spots! 😊 📍 Address: C.
