Tasty Mexican food is always on the menu.
La Tamalera did not disappoint.
We had a chicken tamale, Tacos de cochinita, and Tacos al pastor.
The tamale was ok. A little heavy on the dough and light on the chicken. I don't have a lot of tamale experience though. Maybe it's meant to be that way? The spicy sauce served with the tamale was green with red pepper flecks throughout. Spicy and good!
The cochinita was swimming in an amazing braised broth as topped with pickled onions. We were fighting over this one.
The al pastor tacos were a little dry but had a great flavor and were topped with cilantro and fresh cut pineapple. No canned pineapple here!
At the end of the meal I inquired about desert and, lucky me, a decadent Tres leche cake was on the menu. It was beautifully plated, fresh, and not too sweet.
I am one happy customer!
