    Q&A: Tamales and tiramisu

    Each week, we answer reader questions about food and drink in Charlotte


    Q: Who serves the best tiramisu in this city?
    Kristen: Tom and I are pretty much in agreement on this one. We both love the tiramisu from Villani’s, if you’re looking for a good grab-and-go option. The Everyday Market in Belmont might be a bit of a drive if you’re in Charlotte proper, but the tiramisu is “killer,” per Tom. Check out Volo if you’re looking to enjoy it in a sit-down restaurant setting.

    Q: Where are the best tamales in Charlotte? 
    Kristen: Tamales La Pasadita is a favorite among UP writers. For an unexpectedly memorable dish, check out the Mississippi Tamales at Southern Pecan in SouthPark.
