As for actual businesses, La Espiga de Oro on 24th has pretty decent tamales too. I had a really good Nicaraguan tamale at the tamale festival at the women’s center in 2009. I think(?) it was from La Santaneca. I’ve only been to Oye! Managua once but recall their Nicaraguan tamale also being quite good.

You know – abuela style from the old country. Lots of different areas represented, too. I’m looking forward to getting a rare chance to taste some of those.

I mean, I’m sure it’s possible in theory to eat tamales without beer, but I wouldn’t want to try.

That’s usually my go-to (aside from ones bought from the old ladies outside the 24th St BART station or the 30th & Mission MUNI stop… but those don’t really count).

I would love to know where. La Oaxaqueña’s were decent, but not great. A lot of times they can be too dry for me.

That’s an interesting question. Everyone has a strong opinion on best Burrito and Best Taco, it seems like. What are people’s preferences for Best Tamale?
