Malta’s fortified cities have become a stage for works of art as part of the country’s first biennale. Aine Fox finds an enticing blend of cultures as she visits the islands hosting the new celebration.
Standing next to a wood-fired oven, I watch as my ftira turns golden, the cheese bubbles and the thinly sliced potatoes crisp up. Mere minutes ago, it was nothing more than a ball of dough. I’m pretty pleased with my efforts as chef Karl Mallia dishes my homemade lunch onto the table. Somewhere between a pizza, a pitta and a pie, this melding of cuisines – created during a cooking class at Girgenti Olive Grove – sums up my Maltese experience.
The ancient limestone facades provide a breathtaking ready-made film set. Among the legacies of occupation across the centuries on the island, none is surely more visible than that of the grandly-named Knights of St John. Made up of noblemen from the most important families in Europe, the order ruled the islands for 250 years. A trip to St John’s Co-cathedral is a feast for the eyes.
