La Palapita de los Tamales

Valladolid


The menu changes daily here, but you'll always find a welcome tamal to snack on. Sweetcorn and pork was on the menu recently, as was excellent pozole (a pork and hominy soup). There's casual indoor or patio seating, and takeout is popular.

Great juices, breakfasts and vegan options, too.
