Lonely Planet review for Mama's Hot Tamales Café
Tamales (a stuffed cornmeal patty) of the world unite at this cheerful nosh spot right by MacArthur Park. Try chicken-potato tamales from Oaxaca, spicy beef tamales from Acapulco or spinach-mushroom tamales from Peru. They're so good, you'll want to pick some up for later in the attached mercado (market).
