Tamales “Ebenezer” – Tamales Guerreros

• BNX
• $2.00
• STREET

This unassuming street vendor in the South Bronx has been serving one of the best South Mexican tamales in New York for over a decade. Each $2 burrito-sized tamal, wrapped in banana leaf and served from an insulated stock pot, is composed of a masa so smooth and creamy that it comes with a plastic spoon. The fillings, shredded chicken and pork matched with fiery salsas, are generous. Just show up before the morning commute is over; by 10:00 a.m. they’ll be gone.
