What a weekend!

Our team held it down Anime NYC, tabled a block party in Bed Stuy, (hosted by our good friends Playground), and we did it as a family!

It was all hands on deck and everyone did their part. Truly so grateful to be surrounded by such a great group of hardworking individuals. The Bessou team is the best team!

Sweet. Spicy. Savory. Bold.

Japanese fried chicken tossed in hot honey for sweet heat, soy-pickled jalapeños for extra bite, smoked daikon for depth.

It’s comfort that travels. At Pier 57 and soon, on your way through JFK T4.
