People in Malta ‘spending more than ever’ on eating out

It seems Malta’s restaurants are busier than ever.

The Maltese have been named among the highest spenders in Europe when it comes to eating out.

Maltese households spent a total of €826.8 million in restaurants, cafés and canteens in 2018, or 12.6 per cent of their total household expenditure.

Only people in Ireland and Spain spent more on eating out than people in Malta, according to figures were published by Eurostat.
