Welcome to my world of Southwest Louisiana Food. You will see here my dining habits both at home and out. You will see my rants and diatribes. You will see reminiscences of the past. What you won't see until after it is published is my reviews. Then I will post them with pictures

Celeste's Tamale 3102 Saba Ln, Port Neches, TX 77651 409-722-1172
This establishment was just a bit strange. When I got there it was obvious it was intended to be a take away place yet they had a dinning room. Everything I got was package in to go containers. Like below the tortilla chips in the bag were pulled straight from a refrigerator as they were ice cold. No salsa but a hot sauce probably intended for other things. I did a side of guacamole that was pretty good.
To use up the coupon I got a soft taco (flour). The taco meat was well seasoned and overall as good a taco as I have ever had
Below is a tamale dinner with three tamales in a chili gravy, rice and refried beans. I loved the tamales. The ratio of the meat to the masa was perfect. The meat was the same as the meat I got in the taco and the masa well hydrated and not dry. This chili gravy I have not encountered before but it had nice flavor and I liked it. The rice was dry as the desert and the beans liquid. Some I combined the two which made it OK and ate. If I ever return here I will just buy a dozen and take away
