- Mr
Taco was on South Broadway where The Adult Bookstore (Risque’s) is now
located. Mr. Taco was owned by Sam Butts or Taco Sam as many called
him. I may be wrong, but I believe the Taco Shop had the first, only and best
tacos in Minot at the time, in the late 60’s. Mr. Taco also was the first shop
to sell Grinders... Similar to a sub sandwich. Next door to Mr. Taco's
was another South Broadway “landmark”. Bennie’s Magic Mile Market or as many referred to it … the Bubble Up
Store. Bennie’s was just one of many neighborhood grocery stores in Minot
at one time. Bennie’s Store is now and oil change shop. I believe B&D
Market in northeast Minot is an off spring of Bennie’s on South Broadway.
I remember Taco Sam....used to walk over there and buy tacos.. and yes I agree they were the best. I think my brother still has his taco meat recipe
