From Far and Wide

There are people that have very high expectations of Bogota Bistro.

Many of our customers come from far away and many of them come to us because someone told them about our restaurant. Last week, I was informed by Roger, who is one of our servers, that a customer had told him that someone had told him about Bogota while in Santo Domingo.

People have heard so much about us through their friends who've eaten at Park Slope that they've come to have expectations of us. I hope we're always living up to that.

Blog Something Already!

Okay..okay...I've been hearing it from readers of this blog that I haven't been updating them with any news. Yes, I am guilty as charged but lately the writing muse hasn't been speaking to me lately. However, I can tell you that Sara Odam, the wonderful artist who painted the mural behind the Bogota Bar is hard at work painting another mural for us in what is referred to as "the Side Room" here at the restaurant. Sara will be painting it over the course of the next few weeks.

I invite you to come take a look at this evolving piece of work as it comes to life here at Bogota Latin Bistro-Brooklyn's best pan-latin restaurant.
