Description
Embark on a unique journey through time with this innovative and exclusive dinner at the Inquisitor's Palace in Birgu, a culinary immersion into Maltese and Mediterranean history. Expert historians and chefs collaborate to bring the past to life with dishes that echo the 18th century, from the humble snacks of paupers to the opulent desserts of wealthy merchants. Taste the history of Corsair celebrations, the Grand Master's exquisite wine selections, the Inquisitor's austere Lenten meals, and more. As you savour these recreated flavours, let the Grand Harbour's rich legacy of authority and prosperity enhance your experience, linking the grandeur of Grandmaster Ramon Despuig's era to the vibrant traditions of today's Maltese festivals.
A private tour for you and your guest/s starts at 7.00 pm followed by a 4-course dinner including wine and water.
