CONTROVERSIAL: Oliver angered Spain in 2016 with his ‘chorizo paella’ creation

JAMIE Oliver has opened a restaurant on the Costa del Sol, aiming to give busy travellers better food choices.

Malaga Airport is the location for ‘Jamie’s Deli’, the latest in the British chef’s chain of healthy takeaway joints.

The restaurant from the 43-year-old Naked Chef star will serve salads, sandwiches, pizzas, hot dishes, cakes and drinks

NEW KID: Jamie’s Deli is the latest restaurant at Malaga Airport

Oliver, who angered Spain in 2016 with his ‘chorizo paella’ invention, is joined by two other new airport outlets, in Café di Fiore and international chain Eat.

These three food stops are among the 25 new stores of a 6,530-square-metre expansion of the airport.

A spokesperson for the airport said it ‘will have a wide and varied offer of restoration, with a high level of quality and which is a true reflection of the excellent Spanish and international cuisines’.

Malaga province is a favourite with the dad-of-five, who singled out Ronda in particular, when he visited Andalucia for his show, Jamie’s Food Escapes.
