Tienda mexicana la Villita — Local services in Duncan

I had heard about this little tienda, but didn't have specific directions. I finally found it, just drive east on Main until you see Loves on the right, then you will see Tienda Mexicana la Villita.

It's an unassuming little spot full of treasures. They have fresh produce which comes in weekly, and they have cooked foods that come in on the weekend.

They had a meat counter with several different types of meat prepared specifically for certain Mexican dishes. I was unprepared to decide what I might try today, but next time, after the tamales, I'm going to try something else.

I bought a small tres leches cake, some limes as fresh or fresher than those anywhere else for the same or a lower price, and several votive candles. They had pan dulce, which was very tempting, but tres leches cake is very rich! So I'll get pan dulce next time.
