Alright guys we are cutting off orders for tamales! Beyond grateful to yall! The first video was the first tamal pop up we did at 2 years ago right before starting there and introducing my famous sandwich menu, that year I roughly prepped 9lbs of jack fruit and the amount of non vegan tamales out number the vegan ones ordered. This go around im prepping 24 lbs of jack fruit which dwarfed the amount of non vegan tamales ordered 😭🙏🏾 you guys have truly come to appreciate the effort I put into my jack fruit and it shows from the orders beyond ecstatic to cook for y’all having to start tonight to make sure everything is done on time for Tuesdays pick up at again thank yall for trusting my cuisine and stay tune for a special announcement for next week 👀😌

First off thank you to everyone who has placed orders, shared the pop up flyer, reposted or have been telling others! Beyond grateful for the opportunity to cook! I wanted to take a moment to reintroduce my self
My name is Frank (not Franscio) May (Mai - Mayan derived last name) I’m a proud 4th generation Mayan chef on my mother’s side. For those of you who don’t know my mother, grandmother and great grandmother made their living by growing and cultivating spices/sauces and cooking and selling food at the market in their village back in Merida, Yuctan Mexico. For as long as I can remember I’ve been cooking at first it came out of necessity my mom worked a day and night job for about 24 years (idk how) so to help her, around the age of 8 I asked my mom if she could teach me to cook so I could feed myself and give her one less thing to worry about. That grew into me helping her for cooking regularly especially around the holidays when she would make traditional dishes from Yucatán. Many many years later I’m still cooking and passionately about it! Food has always been a corner stone in my life from lack of it to healing and exploring the world and my culture through recreating different dishes and working along side many great and passionate chefs/cooks!
We are still taking orders but will make tomorrow, Saturday 10 pm the cut off to submit and fully pay for the order to pick up Tuesday/wednesday at our partnered pick up location. ❤️‍🔥As a thank you and a thank you to the homie across the U.S. who graciously bought many many tamales to give away here in OAKCLIFF ❤️‍🔥Most of the tamales he purchased will be given to the homeless homies next week at but we will select one person from every one who’s shared, reposted ,ordered and paid for to have a free dozen tamales. I won’t name him but know he has a wonderful heart and I’m honored to call him a friend! There’s still time to order but someone will also enjoy some free tamales with their loved ones!
