Kick off 2012 with some nutritious oysters!
Oyster and Brie Bisque is our soup of the week. Did you know that this month is National Soup Month? This makes sense – given the cold blast that’s coming later on this week! Also on the menu at Beck’s this week is a hearty Pecan Chicken Po Boy with a cranberry relish. Good ‘n’ fillin’.
Enjoy! Happy New Year to everybody.
