If you’re looking to explore a new culinary delight, head to Keong Saik Road, where Mami’s Tamales brings the rich tradition of tamales to Singapore. This pop-up restaurant, the first of its kind in Asia, is a collaboration between chefs Mauricio Espinoza of Papi’s Taco and Maribel Colmenares. They’ve created a festive, home-cooked experience that feels like a true Mexican fiesta, complete with colorful artwork, lively music, and enthusiastic staff.
Tamales are the star of the show here, representing centuries of Mexican culinary artistry. Made from masa (corn-based dough) and filled with savory ingredients like chicken or pork, these delicious treats are wrapped in corn husks or banana leaves and steamed to perfection. At Mami’s Tamales, you can enjoy traditional Mexican flavors like Chicken Tinga and Pork Salsa Verde, or try Asian-inspired twists like Ayam Sambal Hijau and Curry Tempe Tamal.
But the experience doesn’t stop at tamales. Start your meal with the Tableside Molcajete of Guacamole and Chips, mixed right at your table, or try the Esquites Vasolote, a delightful take on street corn. For a refreshing finish, don’t miss the unique cocktails, like the Mexican Paleta in a Coconut Margarita, blending traditional Mexican flavors with inventive twists.
Mami's Tamales brings the rich tradition and authentic flavors of Mexico to Singapore in a vibrant, fun setting.
Perfect for families and food lovers looking to explore authentic Mexican cuisine with a twist.
The tamales platter is perfect for sharing, allowing everyone to taste a variety of flavors.
