Evelia’s Tamales Opens a Second Street Cart at the High Line | Eater NY
"I learned that Evelia Coyotzi started the business as a sidewalk stand in Corona, Queens, in 2001 after the McDonald’s she was working at near the World Trade Center closed following 9/11; it’s become known for tamales made with salsa verde and mole that can be eaten out of their husks with a fork or wedged between slices of bread as a guajolota, and it appeared on Anthony Bourdain’s Parts Unknown in 2017." - Luke Fortney
