The Thursday truck near my office in the West Loop features tamales from Tamale Space. Given the popularity among my coworkers (self-proclaimed Mexican food experts...) I expected a bit more. The veggie tamale with carrot, potato and mushrooms is good, but definitely left something to be desired. While the serving portion was generous, $7 for two tamales seemed a bit steep, or maybe I've been spoiled by the Tamale Guy.
On the very positive sign, the service is spectacular and friendly. Plus, the guy behind the truck counter was wearing a Mexican wrestling mask. Can't beat that.
