Editorial Review
It takes huevos to dub yourself, Tamale Capital of the World, in L.A. Fifty-two lard-less varieties from Central and S. America, all seem pretty perfect to us. Not-for-profit storefront is putting their proceeds back into the 'hood's independent businesses. Traditional pork (Honduras), beef (Mexico), and sweet corn (El Salvador) tamales abound. Sample Bogota's finest fruit tamales and pay respects to the a-maize-ing corn goddess mural.
