Throughout the province of Málaga you can find food markets which have been reconverted into gourmet markets where you will find fresh products and a new way to buy them: with a drink in hand and surrounded by friends. Markets are no longer just places where you can buy fresh products, they have become meeting places where you can have a drink and tapas with family and friends.
It is a new approach which aims to bring the markets of the Costa del Sol to life and to benefit from this feature in order to become a benchmark with regards to the quality of the products of the bars and restaurants, as well as being a tourist centre with a unique and innovative vision without moving away from tradition.
