La Bodega in Bangsar is supposedly the first authentic Spanish tapas
bar in Malaysia. I went there on my final night in KL to celebrate my
RRMA win. The ambience in Bangsar was as lively as usual, despite it
being a Sunday night.
La Bodega tapas y vinos is a bistro restaurant that serves their flagship tapas as well as other Spanish cuisine.
The interior is nicely designed, with bar style seating arrangements around the bar, and tables on the side.
The walls of La Bodega are covered with B&W pictures, showing
life, as it were. I liked it a lot. There’s also something very
interesting, if you look up…
The top of La Bodega in Bangsar is custom fitted with a wine rack!
There are literally bottles of wine hanging on top of you. Nice!
We placed our orders and I got a bottle of champagne to celebrate,
but they were out, and the attendant recommended Torres Grand Coronas
Cabernet Sauvignon, which was okay with me, coz I like red wine.
We ordered from the hot tapas and raciones menu as well as from the
paella menu. The photo above shows the various tapas that we ordered.
It all tasted good, the sauces were soaked up well by the bread.
Pollo al ajillo (Chicken sauteed in olive oil, garlic and parsley)
Chuletas de cordero a la parrilla (Grilled lamb cutlets gratinated with garlic mayonnaise)
Albondigas “Saint Climent” (Lamb meatballs in a rich brandy sauce)
This is the main meal – Paella Valenciana mixta. It’s prawns,
chicken, mussels and clams cooked in a paella with saffron, peppers,
peas and rice.
Here’s a photo of it with flash. This dish requires a minimum of two
people and a 30 minute wait, but that wasn’t a problem with us as we
all had this for the main.
This is what it looks like after it’s mixed. It’s counted per
person, at RM 18, so if there’s four in your group, the dish is RM 72.
Here’s a clearer photo, with flash. It’s surprisingly filling and they were generous with the ingredients. It tasted wonderful.
This is a group shot of us at La Bodega in Bangsar. L-R: Alice,
Richard, Louisa, Huai Bin (me). The bill came up to about RM 300, but
it’s worth it. Good food, highly recommended!
wow…u r really skinny in the pix.
I’d have to concur with you one this subject. Which is not something I usually do! I enjoy reading a post that will make people think. Also, thanks for allowing me to speak my mind!
This might be of good help to bloggers and professionals who are into lookup engine marketing. The data collected is laudable!!
I believe that youtube is a great tool for anyone interested in watching or uploading videos. I have been using the site for years now, and still think it is doing a good job!
