Full House — Restaurant in Birgu

We stopped in this authentic Polish eatery on a visit to Birgu, Malta. Some friends on Gozo recommended this little spot from the time they had lived in that village. Simply put, Full House has excellent food. Their Polish sausage is the best sausage we’ve had on the islands. We asked where they had bought it from, but they wouldn’t divulge their source.
