"At Tamaleria Azteca in the Santa Fe neighborhood of Oakland, this spot has been in business for almost 30 years, and you can expect hefty tamales with firm masa, available in chicken, pork, beef, cheese, corn, and vegetable — with the last two options being the ones not made with lard. Go with the pork, juicy and succulent, not just because they often run out of the vegetable and cheese options." - Annelies Zijderveld, Dianne de Guzman, Paolo Bicchieri
