Frank McBride Wow, now this is a hidden gem where I never expected to find one. A family run El Salvadoran restaurant, in a small town flea market, in the middle of Georgia. My wife and I were surprised when we saw the El Salvadorn flag, and immediately knew we had to have lunch there. We ordered chicken tamales, carne asada tacos, and a jalapeño & cheese pupusa. All of it was made fresh to order, and all the sauces were obviously homemade. It was all delicious, and just look at the prices. Each item was $3 or less. We went back to the windows and told them it was all delicious. Thats when we learned it was family run - son taking orders at the window, mom, dad, and sister in the kitchen. They were so happy we enjoyed our lunch that the mother insisted we have a Salvadoran tamale (wrapped in a banana leaf). Our previous chicken tamales were Mexican style wrapped in corn husk. The Salvadoran tamale was much more moist from the banana leaf wrap - that really changed the texture and taste of the tamale. Definitely get the Salvadoran version, since you almost never find them this way. So, if you are ever traveling down I-75, and are near Tifton, GA at lunchtime, seek out this gem in the New River Flea Market.
