And competition was high at El Corte Ingles’s second Concurso de Ensaladilla Rusa Trofeo Media&Chef, but it was Restaurante La Deriva which beat more than a dozen other Malaga restaurants on the big day.

The contest aims to highlight the different ways one of the region’s most popular tapas dishes can be prepared.

A jury of catering professionals and food journalists unanimously decided that La Deriva Chef Carlos Caballero deserved this year’s trophy for his twist on the classic with iberian ham and a unique presentation.
