Doña Bibi's Restaurant

19 Incredible Places to Eat Central American Food in Los Angeles | Eater LA

"A respected institution in MacArthur Park, traditional cook and Latino community activist Doña Bibi has been cooking stellar Honduran food since 1997 in LA’s biggest Central-American neighborhood. Bibi is very proud of her sopa de caracol, a creamy pot of conch, shrimp, green bananas, yucca, carrots, and cabbage flavored by peppers, onion, and a signature green tint from annatto oil. Baleadas con todo, which are beans, cream, avocado, and egg, are a locals favorite, but for homesick Hondurans, pescado lago de Yojoa, Bibi’s fried tilapia with fried green banana strips and pickled cabbage, is a weekend getaway to the touritic lake on a plate." - Bill Esparza
