Wishing the best chef in the north side Jim (besides our dad) a very Happy Birthday!!!
All the hard tedious work, prepping & hours put into the food that’s made with dedication and love is truly rewarding specially when we have happy customers and our amazing regulars, the days get even better when Jim’s wife and kids comes to visit and put smiles on his face remembering why he works so hard! He only learned from the best ( watching our dad work hard and our mom and all of us learning how to work beside him in the family business since we where little ones.
Jim continues the legacy with the little mini Flores children watching him work and learning little things in the kitchen.
Cheers to Jim and all the hard working small business owners continuing to pursue their dreams, and continuing to grow the family businesses.
Happy birthday Jim!, god bless you with many more happy birthdays full of love, health, and family surrounding you always.
