DESTINATIONS — MALTA
Young, Michelin-trained chefs preside over restaurants such as Commando in the seaside village of Mellieha, while in Gozo the Ta’Mena Estate, the first agro- tourism complex, serves up simple but delicious regional food and wine in the shadow of orange groves. Although wine has been produced from indigenous grapes such as the white girgentina and red gellewza for more than 4,000 years it’s not widely exported, adding another appeal for food-loving clients who want to try something different.
It might be
famous for its culture, but Malta is a fun
and cosmopolitan destination with plenty to keep night owls up until the early hours. The party capital is outside the capital in Paceville (or PV, as it’s known) and St George’s Bay, a small area packed with bars, restaurants, clubs and the Dragonara casino, which is open 24/7. Each June, Malta rocks with the annual Isle of MTV concert, one of Europe’s biggest musical events. The free concert is the finale of Malta Music Week, a packed programme of beach parties, street concerts and club nights, attracting headline acts and 50,000 global party animals. TW
