The Tamale Place
The Tamale Place is pridefully owned by Angela Green and husband Vladimir Ronces, together with Angela’s mother, Leora Green. They strive to keep up with the demand of tamales in Indianapolis and their journey started in 1999 when Angela packed a backpack and ventured solo into Mexico. After two months into her trip, she happened upon a quaint little restaurant/bar on Condesa Beach in Acapulco. The Tamale Place is all about corn.
They begin with boiling white corn which becomes nixtamal and they then wash and grind the corn which becomes fresh masa (corn dough). This is the way of making tamales in Mexico hundreds of years ago and it is the way that they do it today. This is all-natural and uses no preservatives. With the fresh masa, they make their hand-made tamales, tortillas for tacos, and fresh tortilla chips. They pride themselves on all-natural food-all the time.
