Universo BocaChica: experimenta y siente más allá de los sabores
August 11, 2021The Dominican Republic is a well-known country among the British and the Dominican community in the UK, but its culture and cuisine are not well represented here. Not even in a city as diverse and multicultural as London. In fact, Dominican cuisine is often confused with other surrounding countries, which is why the Dominican restaurant Bocachica London was born!
BocaChica has a purpose, or rather a dream: to show in this side of the ocean the richness of Dominican culture through it’s food. To serve those who have Dominican roots and those who are always willing to try new things. Those willing to experience what the authentic taste of the Dominican Republic is like so that they can enjoy the real sazón.
The mission of the Dominican restaurant in London BocaChica is to make you travel to Dominican Republic with each of its dishes. To take you to a bright white sandy beach, with warm, crystal clear waters, to taste what home-cooked Dominican food is really like, the kind of food that is cooked with simple, fresh ingredients and lots and lots of love, just like grandma does!
BocaChica, a way of life
We want you to experience our culture through our coloured and delicious dishes, but we also want you to feel what’s behind the flavours.
In our Dominican restaurant in London we believe in a traditional, humble, but very tasty way of cooking. That’s why our menu is based on unwritten family recipes, handed down from generation to generation, in which absolutely all the ingredients, sauces and dressings we use are fresh, handmade and always from scratch.
For us, the freshness, taste and quality of the food come before anything else.
So, here at BocaChica, you will find mostly typical recipes of traditional Dominican cuisine, but also more innovative and creative ones. Dishes from other cultures to which we give a personal touch, but always keeping in mind our Dominican roots. Because what is the Dominican Republic without a mixture of cultures?
The secret of our Dominican restaurant in London: sazón
For us Dominicans, the secret to happiness and joy is to add a little spice to everything in life, and that’s the attitude with which we do things at BocaChica!
That’s why here you’ll find spice in the food, of course, but also in the ambience of our restaurant because we want you to experience the Dominican Republic with all your senses.
Hence the exotic plants and colours, the simplicity and warmth of the wood… We’ve put sazón in every detail to make you feel like you’re on that white sandy beach and turquoise waters. That’s also with the music! Rhythms for all tastes because we want you to vibrate, we want you to dance. And the most important thing: we will make you feel at home.
That’s BocaChica: flavour, rhythm, joy and home.
My house is your house
From this moment on, BocaChica’s doors are open to you. We invite you to sit at our table and enjoy the flavours of our culture. We want you to feel the joy and intensity with which we live in the Dominican Republic through the freshness of the food and the explosion of colour in the dishes. We want you to experience sazón as we Dominicans do. So, welcome to BocaChica!
