I have eaten here many times. Everything I've tried is delicious. Today I ordered the prototype tamale. It is delicious but spicy for my taste. I didn't expect that. I'm not sure what on it is spicy. I asked for over hard eggs because I don't like runny eggs, they almost got it, the middle was just a tad runny but ok. Definitely try this place out!
