I picked up 2 chicken and salsa verde tamales, and were they ever good. She also had some chicken with mole tamales which I thought I would try another time. I asked the vendor what time she normally gets there and she said 7 am. I don't know how long she stays, but I think she was almost sold out by 10. This is across the street from where the Sobres Ruedas taco truck usually is in the evening (and all day on weekend). But, now I know I can get my authentic Mexican fix at that intersection both mornings and evenings on weekdays. Anyone know anything more about her hours?
