The Bodega Spanish Tapas & Lounge, located in the heart of Georgetown, has scheduled a series of “Flamenco Thursday” shows. The shows, which begin at 10:45 p.m. each Thursday, will feature the traditional Spanish sounds of flamenco guitarist Ricardo Marlow, and the authentic voice of Hector Jose Marquez. Diners can enjoy a variety of tapas prior to the show.
Ricardo Marlow, who has a steady following in the Washington DC area, is highly sought after for his playing style, and has even played at the Ford Amphitheatre in Hollywood, Calif. Hector Jose Marquez is also a popular flamenco guitarist and singer, based in the DC area.
Flamenco is a big part of Spanish culture that features mostly guitar music, along with song and dance. At Bodega, it is one more feature that adds to the Spanish theme, which extends to the décor. The restaurant offers a variety of traditional Spanish dishes, including several varieties of paella, cold and hot tapas, and dishes featuring squid, shark, octopus, cuttlefish, scallops, monkfish, quail, lamb and more.
