Get ready for a culinary adventure like no other! Tamales Inc. is about to blow your taste buds away with their unique twist on a classic dish.
Ricco Lanauze, the mastermind behind Tamales Inc., has taken the traditional tamale and transformed it into a flavor explosion. With a bold vision and a desire to innovate, Lanauze has created a tamale experience that will leave you craving more.
These tamales are a feast for the senses. Picture this: a generous serving of rice, smothered in a rich blend of red salsa, salsa verde, and a creamy cheese sauce. Topped with a generous sprinkle of onions, a dollop of sour cream, a twist of guacamole, a hint of parsley, and the ultimate crunch from Takis. It's a flavor symphony that dances on your palate, unlike anything you've encountered before.
But here's where it gets controversial... Lanauze has dared to go beyond the traditional meat fillings. The main stars of these tamales are pork, chicken, and beef, all slow-cooked to perfection overnight and shredded to tender perfection. Each bite is a journey through a range of textures and flavors that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about tamales.
And this is the part most people miss: the labor of love that goes into crafting these tamales. It takes a minimum of seven hours to create each batch, a testament to the dedication and passion that Lanauze and his team bring to their craft.
But it's not just about the tamales. Tamales Inc. has a whole menu of delights waiting to be discovered. We tried their crazy corn in a cup, a warm and flavorful sensation with a kick that can be customized to your spice preference. And let's not forget the frozen horchata, a sweet and icy treat available in regular or strawberry flavors.
Lanauze and his team are not afraid to experiment and welcome your menu ideas. So, if you have a creative twist you'd like to see on their menu, reach out to them on Facebook or Instagram. They're all ears!
