Venues that inspire

In the heart of our region lies Alma Cocina Latina, a Venezuelan space in Station North, renowned for the creative dishes of executive chef David Zamudio. This venue, established by Irena Stein and Mark Demshak, offers a tropical ambiance with whitewashed walls, large arched windows, and an abundance of large-leaf plants. It’s an ideal setting for relaxed ceremonies, where the light and greenery create a perfect atmosphere for nuptial events. Additionally, its location in an arts district provides unique photographic opportunities, with colorful and geometric murals like Maya Hayuk’s on Charles Street. According to Jessi Rutherford, owner and creative director of Sentimental Fools, a restaurant like this is not just a celebration spot but also an automatic anniversary point for couples.
