Los Hernandez -- home style hot tamales

(509) 457-6003 When Felipe Hernandez lost his job in the early 1990’s, he turned to his sister in his perpetual pursuit for the perfect masa. 2 million tamales later, and he still cooks and grinds his own masa. From a small store in Union Gap he (and his family) serve a limited menu of seemingly perfect tamales. It’s intimate with 2 tables, 1 stove, and your choice of pork or chicken tamales straight from the steamer. It’s hard to resist, so most eat their tamal fresh, but those in the know purchase frozen tamales to-go. And others phone in orders to be shipped. In the late spring (asparagus season) they feature a third choice, it’s their specialty of pepper jack cheese and asparagus.
