In case you were wondering where the idea of southeast Asian flavored tamales started popping-up, it was at an Underground Market, officially named, Los Angeles Underground Market.

We would meet up at different locations each month.  The organizer, Michaela wanted only unique food items, so when dessert was originally mentioned, it was a pass.  When the idea of tamales with a southeast Asian flavor was mentioned, she was all for it!  

Take a look at our first pop-up with LA Underground Market.
