Yummy Yummy - Known as Jimmy's Place in Marsalforn, Gozo

Yummy Yummy is one of the many restaurants along the sea front at Marsalforn, all with tables spreading across the road near to the harbor wall and each one serving food until very late in the evening. We chose this one as it had a varied menu including Chinese foods. In the end, we chose grilled sea bass, a whole fish perfectly cooked, plus a very pleasant white wine. It is a great location, offering excellent service and very good value. This is what we miss the most in the UK, the opportunity to sit outside on a summer’s evening with good food, company, and a beautiful setting.

 

 

 

There was an interesting mix of customers including a German and Spanish couple, us from the UK, and a table of locals with visiting friends from a tiny island in Northern Germany. So, far-reaching conversation, lots of arm-waving in loose “interpretation”, and laughter especially as we were joined by the owner Jimmy who knew the regulars. We have visited the resort for just a day before, but it is worth staying overnight at Maria’s Guest House nearby.

It is perfect for swimming and snorkeling, especially after a hot summer has warmed up the sea. There is a direct bus back to the ferry at Mgarr to return to mainland Malta, or bus 48 to Valletta.
