DELTA TAMALES IN CHICAGO

Rene G, Chicago resident and friend of the Tamale Trail, just alerted us to Yoland Cannon's "Mississippi Delta Hot Tamale" cart that recently surfaced on a street corner on Chicago's West Side. For more information on Delta tamales in Chicago, visit our Chicago Connection page and the LTHForum (a Chicago-based culinary chat site) thread on the subject.

TAMALE TRAIL IN SAVEUR

Amy Evans, SFA oral historian and collector of the interviews featured here on the Trail, talks tamales in the October issue of Saveur magazine. The Tamale Trail is also featured as one of their Web exclusives, a online section that elaborates on subjects that appear in the magazine.

After you've read about Delta tamales, spend some time with the other culinary treasures Saveur has highlighted from the Magnolia State. Better yet, head to Mississippi and taste for yourself!

TAMALE TRAIL IN GARDEN & GUN

The Tamale Trail is featured in the September/October 2009 issue of Garden & Gun magazine. Look for mention of the Bourbon Mall's fried tamales in the magazine's "Secrets of the South" feature, which also lists a link to the Trail.
