THE BATTALION
In a town known for its Texas bars and
dance halls, there is a place where students
can slip a little variety into their club-hop
ping diet. From dancing to dining, whether
the salsa is on the floor or on the chips. La
Bodega is a place to go for Latin flair.
Students seeking something unique will
find the cuisine at La Bodega is anything but
typical Tex-Mex fare.
“One of our most unique dishes is our
grilled fish taco,” said Damen Warrell, gener
al manager of La Bodega. “It’s Mahi Mahi
with a cilantro lime sauce. The tacos are done
Baja style, which means the com tortillas are
steamed and not fried. We get our fish from
Houston twice a week. It’s cleaned in house,
which makes it really fresh.”
Other favorites include the shrimp que-
sadilla, which is made with shrimp, cheese
and’ Bodega salsa wrapped in a spinach tor
tilla, and the burritos that are available in
^ shrimp, chicken, beef or pork.
Saturday night from 1 1 p.m. to 3
a.m.. La Bodega opens its doors
for salsa night, and suddenly, the
food is not the only hot thing in this
restaurant turned dance club. Often
packed wall to wall, people come
to La Bodega salsa night looking
for a break from the country and* west
ern dance scene.
“We get a lot of people who
come out, and they really dance,”
~ said Susan Andershock, a waitress
at La Bodega and a senior microbi
ology major. “We also have other peo-
e who come out and show other people
how to dance.”
On Monday and
Wednesday nights. La
Bodega features Bryan-
College Station guitarist
Michael Tillman. Tillman
has been playing profession
ally for three years and at La
Bodega since Feb. 2001.
“[I play] a combination of
Latin, classical and flamen
co,” Tillman said.
Many visitors to La
Bodega specifically come to
listen to Tillman’s music.
Tyne Evans, an A&M gradu
ate, and Clayton Evans, a
student at Blinn College,
said they visit La Bodega
frequently for the music.
“Often, we do come
specifically to see Michael
(Tillman) ... (his] music
enhances the atmosphere of
this place,” Tyne Evans said.
Tillman said he enjoys the
crowd and its loyalty.
“About once a week,
there 4 s someone who comes
by and listens for three hours, which 1
really good,” Tillman said. “It happens;
ty regularly.”
Tillman usually plays at La Bodegal
6:30 to 9:30 p.m. Mondays and Wednesi
and at Christopher’s World Grill from
to 9:30 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays®
La Bodega is open from 11 a.ml
p.m. Monday through Thursday, Friday
a.m. to 11 p.m. and Saturday and Sui
from 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.
“We get a lot of late-night tables
[coming inj early in the evening is belt
It’s more relaxed,” Warrell said.
