An exciting event took place in Old San Juan with BIMBA Y LOLA, a creative fashion collective from Spain and the iconic Café Caleta, joined together to share an immersive summer experience, with a beachy atmosphere – all with the signature BIMBA style. Stylish guests enjoyed the music and cocktails – featuring authentic Mallorcan pomadas and tinto de verano wines – hosted by Alejandra García, aka La Madrileña, co-founder and owner of the restaurant.
I really enjoyed the behind-the-scenes look at how M‑N Associates refreshed the brand for Guta Cafe using the ubiquitous Vietnamese street stool as a creative anchor — it’s a clever example of how everyday objects can define brand identity. For designers or hospitality projects planning operational or environmental upgrades (like cafés or bars), considering the right back-end infrastructure—whether it’s for inventory, service flow or guest experience—is just as important. That’s why looking into options like ice block makers can help ensure your hardware and service support reflect the aesthetic and brand philosophy you’ve designed so thoughtfully.
I love how BIMBA Y LOLA and Café Caleta captured the vibrant spirit of Spain this summer! Their unique styles and flavors truly bring a fresh and authentic touch to the season. For anyone inspired by this Spanish flair and planning a trip to experience it firsthand, the Turkish Airlines Houston Office is the perfect place to start. They offer excellent support for flights between Houston and Spain, making your travel smooth and hassle-free. Whether booking your tickets or managing travel details, the Turkish Airlines Houston Office ensures you can enjoy the best of Spain with ease.
