Menudo! Delicioius, robust, hearty and filling.

*Satisfied Belch*

Went to the dentist today to have a loose crown re-glued, and on the way back I noticed that what once was an Alpha Beta and then sat vacant for years, has become a Mexican Bazaar. One part is a fairly large Tienda de Abarrotes, where I snagged the Menudo, some hominy, frijoles negros and some seafood - the rest has been converted into a multitude of stalls selling everything and anything, with a Mexican food court tucked away in the back.

I hunted for huitlacoche but came up empty... good thing I stocked up last time I was in Escondido. Still, it was a nice find, because they have all sorts of stuff that I can't usually find here.

¡Viva Mexico!

Is that the menudo or contents from the Dentist spit cup? ;)

Meneudo. My boss here likes it. I've tried it. I may have to break out that picture again.

THe rest of the mexican food is pretty good though. =)

Very good, very good! I was just thinking about those old spit cups while I was at the dentist today, I actually miss them. You could get a good rinse, instead of the little spray they give you today which never quite gets all the gunk out.

Well, if you've tried it, then you have the right to break out the technicolor Tarin if you didn't like it.

It's such a tasty soup - I basically told myself the tripes were just like eating the fatback you find in a can of pork and beans... somehow that made it OK.

If you ever come to D.C., I know a great restaurant with at least two huitlacoche dishes.
