22 Essential Tamales in Los Angeles
"Chef Wes Ávila’s latest venture focuses on Mexican-American tortas packed with soft scrambles, low and slow-cooked meats, some burritos, and whatever he feels like adding to the menu. Right now he’s offering the Chicano-style tamales he’s become well known for on cooking shows, like beef with red chile, duck tamales, and squash, cheese, and rajas (chile stripes). Check the website ahead of time to see which tamales are available." - Bill Esparza
