The Bekker's Story
Humble Beginnings-
大学毕业后，参加过海军，参加过二战， 潜艇厨师戴尔·沃姆和他的妻子贝蒂, decided that they would find their next success in the barbecue business. They found property on Mission Gorge Road, an unpaved and undeveloped area of San Diego County. 在咨询了卫生部门之后, 戴尔遇到了一个小挫折——为了开一家餐馆, he needed the sewer system to be extended to reach Mission Gorge Road. Dale took the initiative and went from house to house and business to business, 收集签名，把下水道运过来. 赢得了“格兰特维尔市长”的绰号,“戴尔领导了整个格兰特维尔地区的发展. Roadside Bar BQ opened its doors in 1958 - becoming the very first restaurant on Mission Gorge Road. 戴尔和贝蒂在这里待了20年, 为发展中的利记市提供美味的烧烤, 并养育了一个家庭，他们将继承这一遗产.
The Next Step-
In 1978, Dale and Betty's son Oscar decided that the barbecue business was also the place for him, 和他爸爸一起开了贝克烧烤吧, 沿着米逊峡谷路走三英里. The new location provided a great opportunity in which they had much more space to focus on catering. A few years later, Oscar was married, and his wife Olga joined the business. Olga and Oscar 在这里成功工作了20多年, 让餐厅忙个不停, 并为不断壮大的利记社区提供餐饮活动. With each passing year, the business grew, and so did the reputation of Bekker's Catering. 在养育了自己的家庭之后:劳拉, Marla, and Scott, 奥尔加和奥斯卡曾试图在2001年退休. They sold the business and spent six years travelling and enjoying their well-earned freedom.
A New Venture-
In 2007, daughter Marla, son Scott and his wife, Jennifer, 把退休的奥尔加和奥斯卡拉了出来, 并开始了新的冒险——西海岸烧烤和餐饮, on Lake Murray Blvd. in La Mesa. As a family, they ran yet another successful restaurant for 5 years in this location. Soon, 他们发现自己的伙食需求量很大, 他们在2010年重新获得了贝克餐饮公司的所有权. 2011年，斯科特和詹妮弗迎来了他们的儿子亨利, 2013年是女儿艾米丽，2015年是宝宝蒂芙尼. Marla and her husband Jonah welcomed son Mazer into the fold in 2014. Finally, after a few years of running a busy restaurant as well as a rapidly expanding catering company, the entire family decided that they were ready to focus exclusively on catering, 并于2012年出售了西海岸酒吧.
