La Gitanita !!! Flamenco Friday night March 2th!!

2012-02-27T01:36:00.000-08:00

Dear all:

La Caja de Musica brings you another fantastic Flamenco night!!

This time we want introduce you La Gitanita,

小野狂花La Gitanita

出生於2011年的台北藝穗節。

他們瘋狂而感性，對Flamenco和所有的音樂都很有興趣。於是，他們開始揉捏Flamenco的各種個性，以輕鬆玩興的風格打造出台灣Flamenco Live Concert的新浪潮。

La Gitanita is a performance group of flamenco dance and music. They’ve been performing since their debut in Taipei Art Fringe Festival 2011. They have music background in classical music, rock, Jazz, etc., but they all fell in love with the mysterious rhythm and melody of flamenco. As the youngest flamenco band in Taiwan, they keep learning, experimenting, and exploring the deep soul of flamenco, hoping to create a flamenco live show with some twist of freshness.

柯乃馨Olga&曹毓玲Felisa

結盟於2010年她們的第一個創作舞展--｛女人。女人/Mujeres。Mujeres｝。

她們認識了5年，也分別在Flamenco裡實踐了10年，而直到這兩年才正式因為創作理念而組合在一起，猛烈與優雅的迥異風格，也讓她們的組合有絕對的視覺感受。

Olga and Felisa became performance partners since their first flamenco show, Mujeres Mujeres, in 2010. Though they have been collaborating for only two years, five years of friendship and ten years of hardworking in flamenco make them bond with each other. Graceful and elegant, fierce and furious.

Their choreography will definitely wow you from the beginning to the end.

La Gitanita and Olga & Felisa are going to present you different aspects of flamenco, with more possibilities and more originality.

小野狂花與Olga&Felisa將在3月2號於樂盒子La caja de Música，帶來輕Flamenco的不同風味，更即將於3/24.25在牯嶺街小劇場帶給大家更極致的Flamenco樂舞創作。

The show will start around 20h30 on Friday night. Ticket fee 250NT(one beer or soda included) if you make your reservation for dinner first no need pay ticket fee.

For those who no have enough of their flamenco enchantment in our place you must no miss their flamenco theater production in Guling-Street Avant-Garde Theatre in 24 and 25 March.

Sundays Morning Brunch!!

2012-02-23T03:52:00.001-08:00

Hello everybody:

Sundays morning you can try in La Caja de Musica a very different brunch, Spanish food. In these days when we talk about Spanish food we always hear the word Tapas. But a lot of people don't know what's Tapas means or the origin of this word!!

什麼是Tapas?

Tapas有人把它翻譯成西班牙小菜，也有人說它是西班牙的Fingerfood，但是西班牙人會告訴你〝Tapas就是Tapas〞!

西班牙文Tapas的原意是”小蓋子”的意思，傳說西班牙國王Alfonso十三世到南部風城Cadiz巡視時，來到一間Tapas Bar，點了一杯酒，酒送達時杯口上蓋了一片燻火腿，國王很好奇問為什麼，老闆說因為這裡風大怕砂子掉進杯中，國王Alfonso十三世非常喜歡這個吃法，便說：請再給我一杯有蓋子的酒! 後來Tapas就慢慢演變成現在各式各樣的吃法了。

如果你今天是心血來潮突然想嘗試西班牙菜，或是想和朋友聚會小酌需要配些下酒好菜，那麼就請試試我們的Tapas吧!

Sundays morning 12h00 to 16h00 we have TAPAS 50NT each
special price for the Brunch!

If you want any other dish is better make your reservation first.

See you soon!!

"Musa´s Trio" in concert Friday 3 Febrary 2012

2012-01-31T07:33:00.000-08:00

We are so lucky to have this Friday a great band at La Caja de Musica. Really , you can't miss it ! Amazing musicians in all senses , with not more words i want to introduce you:

MUSA's Trio:
If someone wants to define Musa's Trio with a word, that should be Brotherhood. That's what this band is about. When you see their performance live the only feeling that comes out is Love, no matter what they play, whether it is Astor Piazzolla, Chick Corea, or Original Pieces, a soft and sad ballad or a extremely fast and pyrotechnical latin jazz piece, you can see, listen and feel the Joy they have just to be able to play together and share it in front of an audience.

The band was officially born in 2010 as the backing group of the chinese jazz singer Ms. Bin Bin who asked Mr. Musaubach to recruit the best musicians he knows for the First International Jazz Festival of Shenzhen. As their friendship goes back a lot of time, and they were all in the same city, Martin asked Adriano Moreira and Lautaro "Luka" Bellucca to join him in preparing for the show. Once they had started rehearsing there was no going back. They all gave up the different bands that they were working with and set up to Beijing to pursue the joy of making music together.
Currently they are the house band at the Shangri-La Summit Wing Hotel in Guo Mao, Chaoyang Area, the most important and famous hotel in Beijing. Besides their work, they manage to do also a lot of performances in as many bars and music shops as possible all over the city.

Another of their abilities is to be a flawless recording trio, and a big proof of this is the upcoming jazz album of the famous Gary Chaw, where they show their most sensitive and soft side to support this incredibly talented singer and performer in making his first english album.

U can see some videos at this link or here

The concert will start at 20:30 , ticket fee is 250 NT with a beer or soft drink included.

Order our delicious egg pudding!!!

2012-01-10T21:28:00.000-08:00

The Chinese New Year is here and is very good opportunity to offer something sweet and tasty to your friends or family!!

農曆春節快到了，樂盒子有個很特別又甜蜜的禮物讓大家送給朋友和家人：

就是西班牙最受歡迎的甜點也是我們的招牌甜點《Flan布丁》

La Caja de Musica makes one of the most popular desserts in Spain, children and adults everybody love eat it.

"Flan" is made with simple ingredients eggs, milk and sugar but how to combine them to get a good egg pudding is no easy but we have our grandmothers recipe to do it!

The pudding needs to be baked slowly, after that we package them carefully and they are ready to be eaten!!

《Flan布丁》所用的材料來源是雞蛋、鮮奶和糖，但如何將這些簡單又健康的食材變成好吃的《Flan布丁》就不容易了，而我們的秘密就是祖母的傳家食譜!

布丁需經過慢慢的烘焙，接者它們就會被小心翼翼的裝進盒子裡，等著被品嚐囉！

Special for these days we offer a box of 6 pudding for 450NT, you only need to write email or make a call 0920.885.996 0975.330.741.
Is better to order 2 days in advance and we will have your dessert ready.
Is better if you come to pick up the puddings because they are delicate.
我們的招牌布丁外帶一盒６個裝450元，由於新鮮布丁準備需要時間，訂購請盡量於2天前和我們聯繫(電話0920.885.996 / 0975.330.741或email)，因為我們的布丁質地綿軟較脆弱，希望可以親自到我們店裡自取。

What are you waiting for to order!!

Paella and Tortilla!!

2011-08-31T09:29:00.000-07:00

Dear friends:

September is here and we still cooking delicious dishes for you, making music, and organizing some concerts!! La Caja de Musica wants to introduce two very very typical Spanish dishes both are round and yellow, but so different....

La Paella (Spanish Seafood rice) This is the most international well known Spanish dish but in Spain it remains more typical of the Mediterranean Coast area, Valencia, Alicante.

Few things you should know is that "Paella" is the name of the pan where the rice and the other ingredients are cooked and the Seafood rice is only one of the different recipes of this kind of rices. One of the best is the rice with rabbit or chicken instead the seafood.

Why is yellow? Is because we use saffron to cook the rice and gives this beautiful color and delicious taste.

Like the tortilla everybody have his own way to prepare La Paella so never get the same taste.

西班牙海鮮飯和西班牙蛋餅！！

親愛的朋友們：
九月已經來臨，
樂盒子依舊為你們燉煮著美好的食物、

彈奏音樂並且同時準備一些有趣的音樂演出！

我們將要介紹兩種非常非常經典的西班牙菜餚，
這兩種同樣都外型渾圓、顏色鮮黃，
但底子裡卻徹底的不一樣,,,

La Paella 西班牙海鮮飯
世界知名的西班牙海鮮飯是大家對於西班牙美食的第一印象，
但其實在西班牙，
La Paella是來自地中海海岸、瓦倫西亞、阿利坎特等地區的典型傳統食物。

有些事情必須讓大家知道─"Paella"其實指的是乘放燉飯的圓型淺鐵鍋，
而海鮮飯僅是眾多Paella食譜中的其中一種搭配方式，
最棒的是Paella食譜其實是佐兔肉或雞肉！！

那為什麼Paella呈現令人垂涎欲滴金黃色澤呢？
令人垂涎欲滴的金黃色來自於香料番紅花與飯經過細心燉煮，
因此得來美麗的金黃色澤，還有其美妙滋味。

La Paella也跟另外一道西班牙經典食物Tortilla一樣，
每個人都有不同的烹調方式，呈現不同的私房風味。

So if you are hungry after see this Paella you are welcome to visit our place and have nice diner with friends
and for those who like special drinks, we have fresh and sweet SANGRIA!

Tortilla de Patatas (Spanish omelet), every mother know how to cook it and is very common and popular all over Spain. The same ingredients in the basic recipe, potatoes, onions and eggs but always different taste depending who makes the Tortilla.

Looks like a cake but is not sweet, in our country you can find it in every Bar...in Taipei you can find it in our restaurant 樂盒子, we put some homemade tomatoes sauce on it!! MMMMM

If you want eat our Tortilla de Patata is better if you tell us in advance because we need almost 30 minutes to cook it and we don't prepare everyday!

To make a reservation 0920 885 996 / 0975 330 741 by email taipei.cjm@gmail.com

如果你看完這些圖片覺得飢腸轆轆，
我們歡迎你來這裡和朋友們一起分享美好的晚餐，
而對於喜歡特別美酒的朋友，
我們還有新鮮甜美的SANGRIA西班牙水果酒！

Tortilla de Patatas西班牙蛋餅
每一個西班牙母親都知道如何烹調這道美食，
這在西班牙是一道非常經典，且受歡迎的菜餚。

Tortilla的基本配方是使用馬鈴薯、洋蔥及鮮美的雞蛋，
儘管使用相同的食材，經由不同人之手，總是有著不同的滋味。

看起來像是個蛋糕，但卻不是甜的。
在我們的國家你可以在每一個酒吧找到它！
在台北，
你可以在我們的餐廳樂盒子享受它，
最棒的是我們獨家以多種香料熬煮而成的純手工製番茄醬汁做搭配，

超美味~~

由於Tortilla de Patatas並不是每天事先預備，
且至少需要三十分鐘烹調，
因此如果想品嘗我們的Tortilla de Patatas，
請提前讓我們知道！

電話預約請撥0920-885-996/0975-330-741；

網路預約請寄信至taipei.cjm@gmail.com

放客兄弟的音樂有一種魔力，總讓人覺得走進了毫無拘束的叢林，我們不在乎世俗的眼光，不在乎社會的繫絆，也試圖用音樂爲聆聽者卸下心中的柵欄，解放每個人都有的如野獸般的狂野自在．我們不只帶著充滿搖擺氣息的音符，在旋律線的背後，我們更堅持音樂帶給人們的感動，歌詞影響人們的力量．「你可以控制住你的身體，但控制不住你的心！」跟著放客兄弟解放你的身心，跟著節奏一起擺動身軀．

Started in 2008, mixed the elements of 70s~80s music into their music. Including Funk, Disco, Blues, Acid-jazz, R&B, Reggae, Swing…Funky Brothers always surprised people.when you see them play,you cannot only hear the exciting sound but also see the spirit with funky style. They wanna express the feeling about this world、crowd、space、people around them,even themselves with the rhythmic notes. From sexy to flaming,their stage power are unlimit.Funky Brothers has a magic,they always makes people feel like into a wild forest,we don’t have to care about popular vison or social rule.When you are here with Funky Brothers,you are the nature. Realease your body,just follow the groove!!

Here you can read translated in mandarin one story about the creation of the first Tapa in Spain!!

什麼是Tapas?

Tapas有人把它翻譯成西班牙小菜，也有人說它是西班牙的Fingerfood，但是西班牙人會告訴你〝Tapas就是Tapas〞!

如果你今天是心血來潮突然想嘗試西班牙菜，或是想和朋友聚會小酌需要配些下酒好菜，那麼就請試試我們的Tapas吧!

Hello everybody!!

I decided write this post because I have a lot of callings with people who can't find our Restaurant or don't know very well how to contact with us.

Location and how to come here.
The address is Chang An west Rd 138 lane, 3 alley, N 18.

We are between Chang An West Rd. and Hua Yin Street. In these streets we have two very important places that everybody in Taipei should be know, in Chang An West Rd is located the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) and the Taipei Bus Station (Q Square) in Hua Yin Street.

Take a look to the map you can see our Logo at the place the restaurant is located.

Sorry the cars can not enter to the small alley!!
So if you drive car, ride scooter, motorbike you can park in these two locations MOCA or Q Square.

Taking MRT you can stop at Zhong Shan (red Line) or Taipei Main Station (red, blue lines).
These two station are communicated by the underground Metro Mall, as you can see in the map the exit R2 is very near of our place!

Make a reservation.
You have two options to contact with us and make your reservation or ask for information.

Write email to taipei.cjm@gmail.com and precise:
Date and time of your reservation.
How many people.
Your name in Chinese or English.
Your cell phone number.

Another way is make a call to Ramses 0920.885.996 or Luis 0975.330.741
You can speak in Chinese(slowly please), English, French or Spanish!!

I hope this post help you people to find the way to come to our Restaurant and enjoy the food, the wines and the music!!

王小愚 in live April 15th at 樂盒子 stage.

2011-04-01T03:23:00.000-07:00

This month starts, and we prepare new surprises, more concerts and events .
La Caja de Musica want to present some underground musicians, because we trust in their talent.
In our days the big companies try to introduce their products with big advertising campaigns spending a lot of money, even sometimes their "products" is not what we expecting.

We believe in pure things, more simple, full of heart, the real experiences we live everyday make our lives richer.

Here is the first band of April :

王小愚

樂團源起&介紹：從小學六年級因為姐姐會談吉他所以開始喜歡寫作.
高中自己也加入了吉他社2004年秋天在學業.音樂和工作中抉擇.於是離開了學校決定一邊工作一邊玩音樂.人生志向不明.但是知道自己這輩子
就算是工作養自己和音樂也好.因為那是我人生中唯一堅持過的事從離開學校的前一年.開始尋找可以一起玩音樂的朋友～一直到現在
盡可能的去突破和嘗試不同的音樂.角色和創作.
2008年認識了任督二脈的製作政勳和建瑋.在他們的鼓勵下
我投入了創作的領域.一開始只是單純的想成為一位創作者.經
過一些時間和考量決定用王小愚這個名字開始表達自己的創作.
這不只是拿著一把吉他唱歌～而是一種意念和存在感的傳達.
2010.12.17開始了“王小愚”第一次個人創作表演.

You can listen to their music in: http://www.indievox.com/voizmusic

Remember come to join the experience of live music, in the best atmosphere. 15 April 2011 at 20:00

En Abril Morcillas mil !!

2011-03-29T09:34:00.000-07:00

Yesterday Luis and me decided to cook one of the most typical dishes we can find in Spanish gastronomy, la Morcilla (blood Sausage).

I want to explain a little bit more about this delicatessen very common in my region, the province of Burgos.

Morcilla or Blood Sausage is popular like a tapa and as an ingredient in stews.

It is generally a thicker sausage stuffed with pig’s blood, rice, onions and spices, although like all Spanish cuisine, ingredients will change from region to region.

Morcilla from Burgos has the reputation for being one of the best in Spain.

A lot of villages in all Spain, perform what is called in Spanish “la matanza” Pig slaughter. It happens in winter, and it refers to the moment when a pig is killed, and practically all parts of the animal are used to prepare different products, like “chorizo”, “jamón iberico” or “morcilla”.

Dear friends now that you know a little bit more about this delicious dish, I am sure you want to know how it tastes right? you only need to come into our Restaurant and eat one Tapa de Morcilla and drink a glass of red wine with it.

La Caja de Musica is the only Spanish restaurant in Taiwan make his own homemade blood sausage, a lot of work to give always the best to our costumers and friends !!

See you soon.

Ramses.

Ramses and Luis two friends from Spain meet in Taipei city, they share the passion for the music, food and culture of Spain. After some experiences, creating and developing ( the famous restaurant El Patio de mi Casa ), or giving advices to another people, then decide make a new project, with more possibilities to have a place where can have the chance to make expositions of art, music, etc, and of course taste the food and wines from Spain in a perfect atmosphere to enjoy it.

From this concept we create the new Restaurant : La Caja de Musica 樂盒子, one place where you can go to talk with your friends or improve your Spanish with us, share your art, your experience and passion or simply drink delicious wine with any "Tapa"...

We hope you can have the chance to visit us soon, I´m sure you will back.
