La Bohemia

La Bohemia

2019 · 30 min

More than 70 years ago Giorgio Motta's grandfather and uncle arrived in Costa Rica from Italy. With their hands they built the building that houses one of the most emblematic bars in San José. Nowadays, La Bohemia welcomes different generations in that same place, who are attracted by the nostalgia of the music, the conversation and the "bocas", but especially by the charm that its bartender, owner and cook, Giorgio, brings to this canteen, that shines within a traditional San José that seems to be soon to disappear.

Every bureaucracy has its own unfathomable logic, and the Costa Rican immigration department is no exception. The lines out front are long, and once you get indoors, consider yourself lucky that you can take a seat on one of the red, yellow or blue chairs you’re assigned—there are even rules on what color chair you get.
