Tamale Wizard is now open in the River Market

  • Tamale Wizard has found a home in the River Market.

This isn’t Bruce Swabb’s first rodeo. The owner and chef at Tamale Wizard (527 Walnut), which opened last month in the River Market, has been hawking his tamales and tacos at the Truck Stop on First Fridays and the Overland Park Farmers Market.

“In order to do tamales well, it’s a labor-intensive, time-intensive process. I tell people you should take a risk and try one,” Swabb says. “When people ask if we have regular tacos, I tell them, no, we have extraordinary tacos.”
