Bulla Gastrobar Receives Prestigious Certification of Excellence From The Spanish Embassy, The Foods And Wines From Spain (FWS)
Fans of Bulla Gastrobar will tell you, the restaurant is the perfect place for folks seeking an authentic taste of Spanish cuisine in South Florida. Serving a vast menu by Chef and Centurion Restaurant Group’s Culinary Director, Felix Plasencia, who began his culinary journey in Spain, Bulla Gastrobar has been a South Florida fixture on the dining scene since it debuted in Coral Gables in 2012. Now, beyond loyal fans and critical acclaim, the restaurant concept has a new feather in its cap with its recent certification from none other than Food and Wines From Spain, making it one of that group’s Certified Restaurants from Spain. To acknowledge the distinction and celebrate with friends and fans, on Thursday, September 12, 2024 all Bulla locations will feature an array of delights. More on that in a moment.
“Being recognized by the Spanish Embassy and receiving this recognition is a huge achievement and we couldn’t be prouder of it and the work the team does to make this a reality,”says Carlos Centurion, President and founder of the Centurion Restaurant Group, which owns and operates Bulla Gastrobar as well as several other successful restaurant brands. “This honor acknowledges Bulla’s commitment to creating an experience that transports the consumer to Spain and honors that country’s incomparable culinary prowess.”
To celebrate this impressive achievement they will hold a ceremony with the Spanish embassy on Thursday, September 12, 2024 at Bulla Coral Gables during which the certification will be presented to the Director of Culinary Plasencia. Perhaps more attractive than this lovely photo op will be the day-long celebration at all Bulla locations including $8 sangrias, complimentary paella tastings during Happy Hour and raffles/prizes, with more surprises in store.
According to the FWS, “Restaurants from Spain Certification Program recognizes and supports restaurant initiatives around the globe focused on authentic cuisine and produce from Spain that guarantee the quality standards of these establishments. The certification provides consumers with the knowledge that they will indeed receive an authentic Spanish dining experience. These restaurants are excellent examples to other businesses that wish to offer Spain on a plate around the world.” For more information visit https://www.foodswinesfromspain.com/en/index.
