Tortillas in Seattle?

[therdogg]

I am looking for a good source to purchase tortillas, both corn and flour, preferable on the north side. Any suggestions?

[elswinger]

A friend of mine swears by the tortillas at Trader Joes.

You can get freshly made tortillas at Guadalupe Market on S 128th in Burien. Best I've had in the area.

Ones made with lard?

A few minutes north of Seattle, but worth the drive:

Pachanga Tortilleria & Deli

18132 Bothell Way NE # 1

Bothell, WA 98011

(425) 424-0570

Everything is fresh and extremely delicious, including house-made salsa, guacamole, and tamales. Also, it's (at least partially) employee-owned.

Oh! I'd just about given up finding good tamales here. Thanks for posting that.

If you are looking for tamales, as well as all thee types of chicharrones, you need to check out Carniceria El Paisano in White Center.

I bought excellent corn tortillas at the little mexican grocery in Pike Place Market. Its the one close to the orginal Starbucks and the knife store. They also serve fabulous tamales.

Really? I've been very disappointed in both their tamales (I've only been sold ones that come frozen from some factory somewhere-let me know if you got a store-made one!) and their tortillas. I do love their salsas and their hard taco shells (these are brittle and kind of greasy-not for everyone but I love them), though.

I finally made the long trek to Pachanga Tortilleria & Deli today, only to find it closed with big "For Lease" signs in the window.

Baja Bistro on Beacon Hill will sometimes sell their house made corn tortillas by the dozen. They are very good.

[therdogg]

Yes, the ones in the Market are factory made. Are there no tortillerias here? How sad.

[rockdoggydog]

There are a bunch of tortillerias down south. start with Guadalupe Market on Ambaum.

Guadalupe makes theirs fresh, but from Maseca. I thought they were good but not great. What I'd really like is a place that makes flour tortillas to order, like at the Fresco Tortilla places in New Yori.
