I lived in Sunnyvale. My hubby, friends etc. loved the mole at La Fiesta... we miss it so much!<br /><br />I'm sure it is classified as a Mole Negro, but to find a recipe that replicates that of La Fiesta, I would not know where to start. Since you've had it, and are cooks, maybe you could help steer me to a good recipe or tips or... anything!<br /><br />I miss their mole, and figured it couldn't hurt to try asking here.highacidityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08858630808148198845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36752534.post-25120195719073022692009-03-11T14:52:00.000+08:002009-03-11T14:52:00.000+08:00That looks like some good, rich mole sauce.I have ...That looks like some good, rich mole sauce.<BR/><BR/>I have added your blog in to my <A HREF="http://www.usmexfood.com/" REL="nofollow">US Mex Food</A> site if you would like to reciprocate the link.ChristianZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10926523379961771939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36752534.post-48428810738412572462008-09-27T11:49:00.000+08:002008-09-27T11:49:00.000+08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Nate @ House of Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00999631992214200998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36752534.post-28727700334311363122008-09-27T11:46:00.000+08:002008-09-27T11:46:00.000+08:00@Marni - it's nice to know that with so many optio...@Marni - it's nice to know that with so many options, you do have a favorite.

But mole and verde are great bench marks, for me another one is guacomole. If it is watery and over whipped I know this place just isn't up to my standard.

So many mediocre Mexican restaurants will serve you dry chicken smothered in mole, thinking that the sauce will compensate for the overcooked chicken, so when you find a place that serves good mole AND tender chicken, that place is a keeper.<BR/><BR/>Now I'm really craving a sangria. Great macro shot of the garnish.Jensterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00390944490265195300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36752534.post-26596513779392803552008-09-20T02:53:00.000+08:002008-09-20T02:53:00.000+08:00Though I haven't been there in ages, La Fiesta use...Though I haven't been there in ages, La Fiesta used to be a staple for me (back when it was half the size it is now). I see they still have Grandmas special chicken which is what I used to always order. I'll have to make a trip there soon.
