Man, we're sooo bummed that we can't make it to this second one.  The first was such a blast.  We're actually trying our best at the moment to get out of our committments for that night so we can come.

Hi Guys,
 
 I just wanted to let you know that we'll be going to Bohemia Havana tonight for dinner and drinks.
 We'll be there around 7.
 
 If you're in the area and interested, stop by for a drink and say hiya.

Will you be taking a 'doggy bag' with you to fill with treats for Zoe and the other pets back home!!!
Title: Re: Bohemia Havana
Post by: flopnfly on June 18, 2005, 10:19:00 AM
If there is anything left, I might think about it.
 
 Zoe is very particular about what she eats, she really prefers cookies to anything else.    :D

I expect Heather and John are dining at the Bohemia Havana right now, maybe even Steve YYZ has joined them.
 
 I hope they all have a wonderful evening together and look forward to a confirmed CN3 date being published tomorrow.

Well everyone must have had a good time as no one came on to post last night.
 
 Wonder if they were suffering the after effects of too many Cristals or the like!!!

Once again Alfredo has outdone himself.
 
 Last night we had the pleasure of dining at Bohemia Havana.  
 
 From the moment you step in the door you are welcomed, amazed, and transported back to lovely Cuba.
 
 The walls are covered in bright and colorful murals of Cuban scenes.  Photo's of Havana hang on the walls, and Cuban music is playing in the background.
 
 The tables are elegantly set, and everything sparkles.  Everyone is singing as they work, and they work hard. Constantly topping up water glasses, delivering mojito's or just checking to see if everything is ok.  They never pass your table without at least a smile and a song.
 
 This was what I had for dinner.
 -----------------------------------------------
 "Popurrí", of our ‘tapas’ of the day tostones, yuca, maduros, croquetas, breaded shrimps, vaca frita, chicharrones.
 
 Pork Sirloin Steak in Honey Garlic Wine with Almonds ……Mores and Christians Rice
 --Yuca con Mojo" Steamed Casava with Garlic and Lime Juice
 --Season Salad
 
 
 I finished the night off with an excellent mojito.
 --------------------------------------------------
 
 
 We felt like we were on vacation in Cuba the moment we stepped through the door.  Except here, there is no doubt that the food is 5 star *****.
 
 I highly recommend that you visit Bohemia Havana, it's a little Taste of Cuba in the heart of Toronto.

OMG......
 
 Well I met Heather and John and we had a great time. I didn't eat dinner, but just stopped by for some Cristals and to socialize with everybody.
 
 Great evening, and after Heather and John left, I stayed to chat with Alfredo and Tefy.
 Alfredo and I locked the doors up to the restaurant around 12:30 a.m. or so, then sat and started on the Bottle of Havana Club. I finally left at 3:00 a.m.   :duh:    :duh:  
 
 What a great evening.
 
 Steve

Welcome back to the real world!!!
 
 Sounds like a great evening was had by all - and in Steve's case morning too!!!
Title: Re: Bohemia Havana
Post by: flopnfly on June 24, 2005, 08:00:00 AM
I'm tempted to go back to Bohemia Havana this weekend again.
 
 The food, the service and the atmosphere is wonderful.  I tried one of their mojitos last week, and I quite enjoyed it.  It didn't taste a bit like mouthwash.  Unlike the ones I tried at the resorts.
 
 The only problem with Tefy's mojito's is that they go down way too easy.
 
 Anybody else up for a mojito at Bohemia this weekend?

Heather :
 If you do go make sure you tell Tefy to have plenty of mint in the stock for CN3 - I wouldn't the Mojito Challenge to fizzle out because of lack of mint!!!

Heather, There's a group of us planning to have dinner at BH tomorrow (Saturday) evening.  We're not sure about the time yet, as some of the folks will be coming after they finish loading that trailer in Woodstock.  Perhaps Steve could let you know more details.
 
 The more the merrier!

Thanks LauraT,
 
 I wouldn't dream of crashing your party.  We'll just make it another night.

Doris, since I will be one of the attendees Saturday night, I insist you and JC join us!
 LauraT, glad to hear you'll be there too!
 
 Iriemon, Mrs Iriemon, Steve and I are all heading to Woodstock to slave away for Rainbow and are going to the Bohemia after  :)

Anyone (Steve, Gambitt) have an update on how many people have already confirmed reservations for Cuba Night 3 on September 17th?
 
 Would it be possible to post names of all those attending too, as it would be great advantage to know in advance who is actually going to be there on the night.
Title: Re: Bohemia Havana
Post by: Steve_YYZ on July 01, 2005, 04:53:00 PM
Absolutely no idea Bellagio. As people confirm directly with Alfredo and Tefy, neither Gambitt or I have a listing.
 
 As we get closer to the date (in late August or early September) I'll ask Alfredo for a list of who's confirmed.
 
 Don't worry, I'm sure most of the gang will make it if possible.
 
 Steve

Post by: Gambitt on July 01, 2005, 06:14:00 PM
I am indeed with Steve on this one... No idea who will really being attending,  but after posting 5 threads, some that got hijacked, I think that we have the weekend, that most everyone should be available...
 
 Those who are not available, on that date, for whatever reason, will be immeadiately deported to our non-Cuba night... in Guantanamo Bay!

   We don't want to go to Guantanamo Bay??? Honest!!!

Post by: flopnfly on July 01, 2005, 11:34:00 PM
We are confirmed for CN3.
 
 Gambitt, why don't you update the main topic with a list of people that have confirmed.
