| Bessie's Daughter's Soulful Tacos Grand Opening |
This establishment is in honor of Helga’s mother Bessie, who taught her the 50 year old taco recipe. Bessie’s
Tacos aren’t just good, they are good for you. BDST’s features home-style tacos made without the mystery meat.
Each bite is full of flavorful (soulful) extra lean ground beef or ground chicken breast which is what makes BDST’s
the best. BDST serves Tacos, Nachos, Salads, New York Style Buffalo Wings and Boss Wings, Sock-It-To-Me Cup Cakes and more.
Breakfast includes pancakes, grits, bacon, sausage, breakfast burritos and breakfast tacos.
The décor of the restaurant is warm, with pictures of Helga’s family on the walls. Taken by her uncle, they provide
a window into Helga’s family and invite us to share in their joys and sorrows. They are moments in time captured by
the camera and displayed for us to appreciate. The music is part of the décor and keeps Bessie’s spirit alive.
