"Run by Juana Hernandez, this casual roadside restaurant is renowned for its extraordinary tortillas—super soft and fluffy—and for deeply layered moles, including a house mole negro made by toasting and charring a wide array of ingredients (onions, tomatoes, garlic, bread, tortilla, bananas, chocolate, sesame seeds) on the comal before grinding and simmering to taste; the owner teaches traditional technique hands-on and emphasizes intuition in seasoning and timing." - Dana Bowen
