Garvm (actually Garum - but it's right across from the Roman Theater :) is a wonderful place to eat in the heart of the tourist district in Málaga. I believe that's why their prices are a bit higher than say, 10 blocks away, but... we decided to see if it was worth it.
The food here is absolutely amazing. The service is impeccable.
My wife's warm Goat Cheese Salad with red wine and honey vinaigrette (Ensalada de Queso) was sumptuous, with a generous slab of warm, grilled goat cheese, a variety of greens and sweet cherry tomatoes. My own Sesame-Seared Tuna (Costra) was out of this world! This was truly sushi-grade tuna that was skillfully seared to hold in the flavor and the tenderness, served on a bed of crispy vegetables and noodles. Even the wasabi was authentic. Oh, and a great presentation, as well!
Our dessert was a shared Mango Mousse. The sweetest surprise was the morsels of fresh mango at the bottom. Oh, and I asked for a "chupito" of rum to go with my espresso afterward - they used Havana Club 7-Year Old Añejo.
Were they worth it? Absolutely, emphatically, YES. Buen provecho! read more
