"This East Bay-based tamale powerhouse puts up a stand at the Tuesday and Saturday farmers' markets in Berkeley. This outlet has been a favorite for a few years for its chicken and black mole and pork with red mole tamales, $60 for a dozen of either. Hit up owners Rosa Oliva and Carolina Santos directly at tamalesoaxaca@gmail.com to place your holiday orders." - Annelies Zijderveld, Dianne de Guzman, Paolo Bicchieri
