Check her out! Do you remember Taormina Kiosk in Sliema?
This throwback photo is GOLD!

This time capsule of a photo is a real throwback and we’re totally loving it! It shows Taormina Kiosk back in its glory days. It was a popular spot way back when and was always bustling with customers.

This photo shows the kiosk on the Sliema promenade (near Independence Gardens) in the 1970s, with people gathered around the table, chilling in the warm weather. We’re loving the ‘70s vibe!

Taormina Kiosk has since closed and now Fresco’s Café-Restaurant stands in its place – another spot buzzing with life, especially during the summer months. You’re bound to have passed by sometime or other!
