I’m a huge fan of Delicious Tamales. Every year this is a staple at our family dinner. I have tried to make tamales myself, but it is an extremely labor intensive activity and only cost effective if you make at least 10 dozen. The vegetarian tamales are made with canola-oil masa and not lard. They fill them with black beans and red peppers. The sweet tamales have coconut and raisin: pick up a dozen of those to throw into the breakfast mix with coffee during the holidays. Of course they have chicken, pork and bean all available to be mixed with jalapeño. What I love is that the tamales are always hot when you pick them up. If the line is long they will give out sample tamales. This store is more of a pick up and go kind of place, and most flavors run around $ 7 per dozen.

So I got stuck here due to a looooonnnnggg train going by(location is right next to the train tracks), I look right & woala!!! TAMALES!!! Now I’ve been craving some tamales for a good while & since I’m currently living in Austin I have yet to come across any place that serves really good tamales so here I am San Anto!!! the closer you get down South the better the Mex food right? Well maybe not. Have people forgotten what tamales are supposed to taste like? Has the economy hit so hard that it’s even affected tamale production? questions questions, but oh well. I remember when a tamale was 50⁄50 meat stuffing with maiz casing, lately it’s been more like 90% maiz &10% stuffing. At’s IT!!! I guess I’m gonna have to go deeper South to get some good tamales. Border towns here I come, I wonder how bullet proof vests are going for nowadays? aaahhhh did I just say that? hahahahaha J/K. This place isn’t sooooo bad but for my two cents, I think I’ll wait for the train to pass by next time rather than stop in & get some tamales from here.
