Carne adovada isn't Mexican or Tex-Mex. It's New Mexican. No idea where you can find menudo around here, I imagine beef tripe stew is an acquired taste. Ay! Jalisco serves sopapillas but they're more like cachangas, and don't puff up like a beignet or a fried dough pizza does.

Viva Mexico makes a few different stuffings for their tamales. I've never had them but as I said before - most of their customers are Mexican so I assume they're probably good.
