Description
Behind the cart is a family routine starting at 3 a.m. to hand-make the day's batch. The menu features options like peppers and cheese, chicken mole, and red sauce tamales, which are noted for being moist and packed with protein. Offered seven days a week at three dollars each, the food comes with quick, friendly conversation from the owner.
