Helen's Bakery is known for its delicious homemade tamales and posole. The tamales are a highlight, with a great balance of masa and shredded meat, particularly the pork version. A dozen costs around $34.50, but the satisfying and flavorful chile makes it worth the price. The menudo is also popular. However, the establishment is not what one might expect from a bakery, as there is often a lack of baked goods. While there may be a whiteboard with various items listed, the selection of pan dulce is limited. It is recommended to arrive early for tamales, as they sell out quickly. The bakery accepts only cash and does not have a menu for customers to choose from. The reason for the lack of baked goods remains a mystery.
