HOT TORTILLAS
Take a look at this little beauty. I saw one, ordered two and it really really works. Keeps tortillas warm for a good while. I just ordered five more
for gifts.
One thing I did which the directions didn't mention was wrap the tortillas in parchment paper only to try and keep the fabric clean although it isn't
necessary.
Don't use foil in the microwave.

Pretty neat, the wife has been using those, injection moulded things, before that I think it was made out of styrofoam or something like that..
It looks like it would be a little smaller than the thing we use now.. which I like.. have to let her take a gander.. thanks

different from the ones that just keep tortillas warm. great idea. I tried to order two, but they don't take PayPal. Sent them an e-mail so maybe
they will add that payment method (very secure).

The restaurant (la Tia) in Rosarito uses these and also sells them for 5.00 or 6.00. I bought one and use it all the time. Really works well.

I got one as a gift last year. It's the bomb! No mess, no pans, and it warms several tortillas evenly and keeps them warm for a long time. Now that
I know where to order them I'll be sending them out as gifts this year. Thanks for the source Dennis.

I have a couple of those and they do work well. I suggest to turn it inside out when not using it as it gets a little humid inside with the hot
tortillas. I tried wrapping them in paper like Dennis suggests but it seemed to dry out the top and bottom tortillas too much. Or maybe I am just too
fussy about my tortillas!
edit -
I just went back and read the posts again and maybe you have a good idea Dennis, I tried paper towels and they do suck a lot of moisture out.
Parchment paper might work good!

OK...Now for a quality control issue, not the product, but the seller. I ordered five for gifts and they sent four. I'll write them and await their
response. I'll letcha know how it plays out.

Just got a note from the company and the shorted item is in the mail. They're business practices are as good as their product.

Was the bed warmer familiar? Is that why it was removed? or was it that it looked like it belong to a Nomad?

A little delayed reaction here. Sorry.
Anyway, parchment paper works well, but perhaps not everyone has it lying around. With that in mind, I used a couple of pieces of paper from my
printer. Also a plate. It works just fine as long as there's no gold-leaf printing on the back side.
I've also been given a tip that you can bake potatoes in these warmers. I'll experiment with that.

To garynmx
I was in Rosarito today and tried to find the restaurant, "La Tia".
The only place that seemed to fit your description was "El Tio, Gorditas Estilo Torreon"; and it is located in the same block, but on same side (west
or ocean side) as the Banamex, not across the street (east or inland side).
Am I missing something?
Also, DENNIS, (Warning, Shameless Self Promotion Alert!), my birthday is coming up.
