Tamal Canario at Los Portales restaurante in Xico, Veracruz.

The building we’re in dates back to 1794 and once was a prison that held General Santa Anna.  The restaurant is Los Portales.

Tamal Canario is made from cornmeal and custard wrapped in a corn husk and steamed.  At first we wondered whether we would open it and find an actual canary
