Your A-List: Best Tapas
Sure Texans love steaks and barbecue and other hearty foods. But we’re not some kind of barbaric class who can’t enjoy small plates with a more international flare. Even someone in cowboy boots on can admit to enjoying the convenient delicacies of tapas. With 39 percent of the vote, the winner of the Your A-List poll for Best Tapas in Malaga.
The beauty of a tapas restaurant is that if you don’t like what you’re eating, try a bite of something else. The menu is vast, from red peppers stuffed with goat cheese to warm artichokes with manchego to smoked chicken raviolli, and with an extensive wine menu, you can spend all evening mixing and matching flavor components until you feel as if you couldn’t eat another bite (read: plate).

I voted for Fino and as of Thursday night, they had over a hundred more votes than Malaga. Pretty fishy…
