About Restaurant, Latino, tamale, corn
Restaurant corn tamales are masa-heavy preparations with a relatively small filling ratio.

Fat comes from the lard worked into the masa, which is what gives restaurant tamales their characteristic tender, slightly greasy texture. These are not the meatiest tamales, but the corn-forward flavor is clean and satisfying, particularly when the masa is well-seasoned.
