Tapas concept Bulla Gastrobar (pronounced "boo-ya") is finding success in introducing the Spanish style of small-plates dining to American audiences. The growing concept, which frequently adds seasonal plates and cocktails, focuses on the social aspect of dining—though it also offers delivery through several third-party providers. Bulla is slated to open in Miami at the end of the year. It is part of Doral, Fla.-based Centurion Restaurant Group, which also runs small concepts Pisco y Nazca and Beehive Kitchen.
