pastizz

The best local Maltese food. It is flaky pastry filled with either cheese, peas, chicken or sardines which is baked to perfection. Typically found in corner stores and sold for 50 cents each. Can also be used as a derogatory term 'Kemm int pastizz' which translates to 'You do not have courage'. Pastizzi are also the ultimate symbol of femininity.

'Ahh that pastizz was so good'
