REALLY GOOD
1st BACANES
Pambiche, Portland
Bacanes are savory steamed cakes similar to tamales, made of seasoned plantains and cassava masa wrapped in banana leaves. Fork tender. This bacanes was stuffed with cerdo, a Cuban roast pork bathed in savory herbed gravy.
2nd TAMALE PLATE
¿Por Qué No?, Portland
One tamale plate. Oaxaca style wrapped in a banana leaf, beans & rice, queso fresco, salsa fresca & crema.
3rd "OAXAQUEÑO" TAMALE
Restaurantes Mexicanos Any, Zihuatanejo
Tamale with braised pork rib meat in a red sauce. The rib meat was so moist and delicious. I should have ordered it with sides of rice and beans.
