It’s the season finale of Lovin Eats and to end things of we’re going full circle and revisiting Malta’s favourite sandwich, the ftira.

The tenth episode of Lovin Eats is truly a special one. Not only do we visit some stellar ftira joints around the island but we’re also waving goodbye to the last episode of season one and what a season it was.

Lovin Eats did everything from pastizzi to sausage rolls, timpana to kebabs and now it’s time to say goodbye.

But not until we give our final take on the ftira but with a twist. Last time round we were in search of the classic ftira biż-żejt but this time we’re flipping it around and looking for the exact opposite, ftira with other fillings.

For this episode, Lovin Eats’ hungry host Johnathan Cilia visited six renowned local establishments each bringing their own unique fillings and flavours to local Maltese bread. 

As always, a set criterion is laid out based on freshness, external crispness, and internal softness, because no ftira is complete without all these qualities.

Are you ready?
