ORLANDO, FL, June 27, 2005. The AAA Four-Diamond Boheme restaurant, located in downtown Orlando's AAA Four-Diamond Westin Grand Bohemian Hotel, can now add another feather to its cap. The newest recipient of Wine Spectator's Award of Excellence, The Boheme restaurant now officially joins the top echelon of restaurants throughout the world who meet the highest standards of wine service. With more than 200 selections on their boutique listing of wines, The Boheme demonstrates its commitment on a daily basis to continuously develop and maintain a stellar list of fine wines from around the world.
Wine Spectator's Award of Excellence is awarded following a lengthy application process, including a detailed description of wine programs, copies of restaurant and special event menus and a copy of the wine list including vintages and appellations for all wines featured. The Boheme will be listed in the magazine's August 2005 issue, a much-anticipated guide to what industry insiders consider to be the best restaurants in the country.

In addition to being an award-winning chef, Mason has also appeared at the famed James Beard House in New York City.
