Nuestra historia

Two Locos, One Kitchen

Locos Whetto started the way the best food does: a couple who love to cook, feeding people they love. Mike and Courtney turned a from-scratch kitchen into a Panama City market favorite, one tray of tamales at a time.

Everything is made by hand, in small batches, with real ingredients. No shortcuts, no cans, no fillers. Just food made the way it should be.

Founded by Mike & Courtney
