Our friend used to bring us tamales from the tamale lady and today I finally went over myself. She is literally on the corner of the street under some tents/umbrellas (it was raining today). I went around 8:20am on a Friday. There was somewhat ample street parking around. She accepts cash, there is a chase bank right next to her. The regular(red and green) tamales are $2 each. They also have sweet ones!! Pineapple and strawberry. There are some special ones she has only on weekends, those are $5 each. They were super nice! They speak English and Spanish. I'll be back.

Best tamales I've had in a long time and they are huge and I've eaten quite a few in my day the only thing that would come close is my uncle's recipe that passed away and no one ever bother to learn it BUT these are awesome indeed
