Mexican food

Does anyone know where I can buy mexican food or a little Mexican market here in Kuwait?

You will find a modest selection of ingredients on shelves of larger grocery stores such as LuLu, Sultan Center or SaveCo. As far as I know, there is no specialized store for Mexican items in Kuwait.

We're from San Antonio.  We haven't found really "good" mexican food yet.  You can get the basics (tortillas, refried beans, etc) from Lulu's and the like, but if you're looking for Masa, corn husks, and such I don't think you're going to have much luck.

We're still looking though so if we find something I'll post it up here.  I've been craving some Tamales something fierce lately...

Exactly!!!! I had to order beans from amazon. I’m really craving tamales too, or at least tortillas de maíz. I wish someone would come up with a taqueria, that would be the best !!!!
Thank you

There have been a couple of attempts, mostly failed. Maybe an opportunity for you to team up with someone and start one? I'd visit for sure. :)

Did you order dry pinto beans by any chance?  I cant find those anywhere out here!!!

I found one booth at the Souk Al Mubarakia that has something close enough that we don't have to order through amazon anymore, but I'm pretty sure they're cranberry beans and not real deal pintos (they taste close enough to pintos at any rate).

Right now I'm getting desperate enough, I might try making tamales from corn meal  :lol:
