For some time now the owner, Jose Aste, has been operating Tantay out of the Allen Neighborhood Center's Accelerator Kitchen as well as a food truck. And now he's extremely excited to realize his dream of owning his own brick-and-mortar place.

When Will Tantay Open?

Jose plans on opening this new location sometime in December or January, so we don't have to wait long for deliciousness.

Here are the types of dishes you can look forward to;

potatoes topped with a zesty Peruvian huancaina sauce, ceviche, chicken stir fry with onions, peppers and Peruvian seasoning, and Aji de Gallina, a chicken stew in a creamy Peruvian sauce.

Where is Tantay Opening?

Tantay will be opening in Okemos on Jolly Road at the old Woody's Oasis location. The exact address: 2398 Jolly Road.
