With less than two weeks before Christmas, Delicious Tamales had to stop taking pre-orders, but that's not stopping Austin residents from walking in to try some authentic tamales.
This season is a busy one for many people, including Valerie Gonzalez, owner of Delicious Tamales."We are a very seasonal business. The rest of the year we are busy but not as busy as the holidays," says Valerie Gonzalez, owner of Delicious Tamales."You know, tamales used to be the Hispanic people. It was just the Hispanics. They would make tamales for the Christmas holidays. Now it's cut across all cultures," says Gonzalez.
"We've been making tamales forever. Forever. I can remember my grandmother telling me about her grandmother where they would make tamales during the holidays," says Gonzalez."Everybody would get together and make the tamales. The thing about the tamales that not too many people know is that there's always the chisme, the gossip, the gossip of the neighborhood," says Gonzalez.
"She was born into the business. She was born in 1983. And I've been in business since 1980. So, she grew into the business. She went and she got her MBA. So now she's got all these modern ways of running a business," says Gonzalez.
