La Guadalupana

I have been here multiple times and was never disappointed,
First of all their rotisserie chicken is amazing, perfectly spiced. Barbacoa and Carnitas are also great.
Secondary the owner, she always works the register and is super sweet, never in a bad mood.
You should really go there and try their chicken, seriously.

I was in the area to pick up a prescription at Walgreen’s about a mile east of here. Since I was in the mood for making Mexican food for dinner, I thought when it comes to ethnic foods, it would be worth checking out a local small grocery instead of the usually pricy Jewel on Dempster.
So I found this place, located next to a restaurant in a strip mall in what is unincorporated Maine Township. Well, I wasn’t really impressed. I came for corn tortillas (got ‘em), chips (got ‘em) and I thought I’d get a few specialty items. Well, they got a small deli in back but nothing caught my eye. They have a bin with baked goodies, with mainly Mexican-​style pastries. To my disappointment, they did not have those big rolls with the textured ridges of brushed sugar on top. In fact it was mostly gone despite it being in the middle of the afternoon. What was left, appeared to be rather dry.
The rest of the store consists of a small produce aisle with not-​too-​fresh peppers, corn and other vegies. There’s a small selection of cleaning supplies, some canned goods, dried spices, bags of rice, etc. I ignored those since I can get better deals on the same items elsewhere.
But hey, they got every kind of phone card you want if you’re calling Mexico long distance. In an area that could really use a nice Mexican store, they could do way better.
