Mr. Tamole

Mr. Tamole brings Puebla-style cooking to Boston Public Market, with tamales, tacos and tortas made from family recipes. Mother and son Margarita M. Carreto and Andrés Medina Carreto started by selling tamales, mole and salsas at farmers markets before opening their market stall. Mole poblano and green pipián remain part of what makes this counter worth seeking out.

You’ll find it inside the market at 100 Hanover Street, where it opens daily at 10 a.m. It’s an easy lunch choice when your companions want to order from different vendors and meet back at the shared seating. Try the tamales if you want to start with the food that gave the business its name.
