SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
|
|
|
WHEREAS, The Legislature of the State of Texas is pleased to |
|
|
recognize the Bazan family in honor of the 50th anniversary of their |
|
|
family-owned restaurant, Taco Olé; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Taco Olé was established in 1973 by the late Elias |
|
|
Bazan Jr. and his wife, the late Delia Bazan; the couple opened |
|
|
their first restaurant, Okie Frijole, in 1970 in McAllen shortly |
|
|
after they were married and offered all-you-can-eat meals for one |
|
|
dollar; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, With the goal of creating an authentic Mexican |
|
|
dining experience in the Lower Rio Grande Valley, the Bazans moved |
|
|
back to their hometown of Mission in 1973 and opened the first Taco |
|
|
Olé restaurant; through their determination, talent, and faith, |
|
|
Elias and Delia found lasting success in their family business, and |
|
|
the restaurant now operates two additional locations in Edinburg |
|
|
and Sharyland; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Taco Olé restaurants are famous for their excellent |
|
|
Tex-Mex dishes, and especially for their family-sized botanas that |
|
|
feature grilled beef, chicken, and shrimp as well as their fresh |
|
|
tortillas and delicious enchiladas; Taco Olé has received accolades |
|
|
that include being featured in Texas Monthly as one of the "Best |
|
|
Mexican Restaurants in Texas," and the restaurant has been a |
|
|
popular culinary destination in the Lower Rio Grande Valley for |
|
|
half a century; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, This beloved business and its owners and staff are |
|
|
indeed deserving of special recognition for catering to the hearts |
|
|
and palates of Texans throughout the years and for continuing the |
|
|
family's proud tradition of providing exceptional service and |
|
|
cuisine to their customers; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 88th |
|
|
Legislature, hereby commend the Bazan family on their contributions |
|
|
to the Rio Grande Valley and extend to them and to the restaurant's |
|
|
staff congratulations on the 50th anniversary of Taco Olé and best |
|
|
wishes for the future; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That a copy of this resolution be prepared for the |
|
|
business as an expression of esteem from the Texas Legislature. |
