Anyonita Nibbles Goes to Malta + Food of the World Party

Anyonita Nibbles Eats Malta

I'm especially excited about this month's Food the World party. This month we're jetting off to Malta, a sunny island off the coast of Italy. It's fitting that we'll be focusing on Malta's food because that's where I am at the moment! 

The husband, son and mother-in-law and I are all enjoying some much needed down time in one of the most beautiful countries I've ever visited. We've got two lovely weeks booked here and I plan on finding out as much about this English-speaking country as I can and trying as many of the lovely foods as I can. Malta has a very interesting history and a lot of influences from other cultures, predominantly British influence (it used to be a British territory), French and of course, Italian.



I was planning on making a recipe from Malta to share with you for this party, but completely ran out of time, so instead, I'm going to share with you some of my favorite things from my Trip to Malta Pinterest Board and a little bit about Malta itself.

Maltese Food I want to try while we're here:

Figolli, Almond Pastries

Imqaret, Maltese date pastry
 
Pastizzi, Maltese pastry filled with meat or cheese

Orange Malta Ham
 
Fig Liqueur

Strawberry Cannoli
 
Traditional Maltese Bread Van

Maltese hobz biz-zejt u t-tadam
Now onto the Food of the World party!  
I wasn't able to get the code for the party before I left, but you can find the party on Simple Living and Eating
