Best Menudo?
I'm looking to try menudo all around town. Any recommendations?

Alfredo's on PCH in Lomita is my current favorite. Get it con pata for the full experience. The broth is wonderful and the tripe is perfectly cooked.

Lenchita's in Pacoima or El Abuelo (Abuelito??) in San Fernando.

Try Tacos Delta in Silverlake--you sit in the back and they bring out a huge bowl of menudo--very nice with some limon and cilantro--about 5.00.

Lisa's Coffee Shop is not much to look at from the outside (or inside) but it is a down-home road dinner with a good American breakfast menu and a authentic bowl of Red Menudo on the weekends (While it last so be early) I just had a bowl last Saturday morning and it very good. I have also had the Pork Chops & eggs, Biscuits & Gravy, Jumbo Omelette w/ meats or veggies, Golden/crispy hash browns on the outside-moist on the inside. All those breakfast are very good as well. I noticed the number of people coming on the weekend is growing.

Lots of my Latina friends swear by El Matador in Monrovia for their Menudo and go there weekly.
Also, I have heard that Mijares (both Pasadena locations) make a good bowl.
