Breakfast at a Mexican supermarket

We were considering having fried chicken and waffles for breakfast, as there's a really good place for it in Oakland, but we decided to spare Seamus's stomach, and go to a nearby Mexican supermarket for some pastries instead. In the end we weren't super kind to his stomach anyway, as a random lady in the supermarket told us her favourite tamales were the cheese ones (she just saw us looking around :D), and as we've never tried tamales before we thought we had to buy some. We didn't actually really know what they were, just knew the name. They are some kind of corn paste (called masa) wrapped in corn husks and steamed. And of course the put different fillings inside too, we tried the cheese and pepper one, and a pork one. We also walked away with some kind of deep fried tortilla that we tried in store and found delicious (they are very similar to Indian) and a huge tub of guacamole, to eat later.Læs mere
