This place is a true Mexican food experience. I had quesa birria tacos (made with goat!), a Friday only special.

The tacos were chared to perfection. The 3 salsas(mild red, med green, hot orange) offered are all individually fantastic and I found my favorite to be a mix of the hot and mild.
The place is small and run by family. The gentleman keeping the place going has his hand in every aspect of the dining experience.

Read moreVuelve A La Vida, Topeka, Kansas about a block south of 24. Truck parking around back. Not sure about overnight but definitely a great place to spend a 30 min break.

I have had ALOT of tamales in my life, and I judge them rather hard because not many live up to my childhood expectations. Have to update you on the taste later. They are the largest tamales I have ever seen. Easily 3/4 of a pound...

As a truck driver it is sometimes hard to get back to the same place twice I will make an effort to be here. Just stopped in again this is about my 4th or 5th time here picked up some tamales to go and had one while I was there absolutely love this place if I had more freezer space I would pick up a lot more. I am going to be sad when I finish my tamales until I can get back for more I think I'm going to buy a freezer to put in my truck so I can carry enough to...
