From the local food press

Editor’s picks from published local guides
  • The Ancira family makes both savory and sweet tamales at its South Bay shop. Beef and pork are the familiar staples; the sweet versions bring nuts, raisins and strawberry into the masa. This is a dedicated tamale kitchen with several fillings to choose from. The family has spent decades making tamales for the area, and the Chula Vista storefront is a place to pick up a mix of savory and sweet bundles.
