Where can i get tamales in the NOLA metro?

[Jack]

And I mean real masa and pork tamales, without any of that red sauce. Let me know!

 

[MrNiceGuy]

There is usually a truck near louisiana and claiborne

that certainly escalated quickly...

Jack: look for someplace authentic, usually a grocery store with a restaurant here in BR, cant imagine nola being much different. Usually named something like Supermercado, Tiendita, etc. Should have some slammin tamales. Will help if you can habla a bit, or just hold up the correct number of fingers and say "tamales por favor"

I know all about the tienda Latinas, I've been known to go after the 32 oz coronas, but here they all seem to sell empanadas, arroz con pollo, tortas, etc but no tamales. I can cobble together enough broken spanish to get some tamales handed to me, just can't seem to find them.

That's strange. If you ever get up to BR, Mr. Taco on Airline Hwy near the Kleinpeter Dairy, or La Tiendita on Siegen at Cloverland both have good tamales, along with everything else.

Ivy's Tamales in St. Amant. About 45 minutes out of NO. They sell them frozen so you can stock up. They sell by the dozen but come wrapped in bundles of two for convenience. Well worth the trip.

I have eaten in their restaurant and it was good. They are the real deal. Double wrapped soft corn tortilla fajita taco with cilantro.

Sorry no pasties. But they do speak English.

 

[noob]

There's a place on terry parkway in the westbank where the old o Henry's used to be

 

[nolaradio]

So St. Amant is in the New Orleans metro area now? Hmmm....


Maybe try Nuevo Laredo, Mexico. Only a short 10 hour drive from NOLA.

Never said that. Just mentioned an option with full disclosure where it is. The tamales are worth fighting over.

They sell them hot too. When we go to get a load of frozen tamales I get hot ones to eat for lunch.
