How locals rank it
In Kansas City
From the local food press
Editor’s picks from published local guides
Kansas City magazine credits this bakery off Independence Avenue with one of the most extensive tamale menus in town, and it sells them all year rather than only through December. Tamales are two dollars each and orders go in by phone for pickup. Order the pork with red sauce and the chicken with salsa verde, then take a jalapeno and cheese for the vegetarian at the table and a strawberry with raisins to finish.
