On September 12, I attended the 1st Anniversary party at Bodega on Main in Strathcona where co-owners Paul Rivas, along with his Business Manager and sister, Natalie Rivas. invited media guests and their friends to celebrate.
Although they are celebrating one year on Main, the former restaurant La Bodega had celebrated over 40 years on Howe street prior to this 2.0 restaurant opening on Main last year. Staffed by many familiar faces with General Manager Hector Medina and Chef Maritza Orellana helming front-of-house and culinary operations.
I enjoyed drinking their Sangria and some of the delicious bites that were served including the Albonigas, Chuletillas de Cordero, Potato Croquettes and the Membrillo Y Quesso.
