The Best: Chili Rellenos

[Boognish]

I stopped in a little place on the DelMarVa peninsula on my way to the beach a few weeks ago and picked up the best chili relllenos I've had in years.

Does anyone know a good Mexican place in town where I can find some excellent chili rellenos? I can't remember ever seeing them on a menu.

Thanks

I'm watching this thread... Los Sarapes in Chalfont had very good Chiles Rellenos but I think they took them off the menu

I have gotten them at Tequila's in Center City...it's been a few years, but I believe they are still on the menu. I'm no chile rellenos expert, but I found them enjoyable :)

Thanks!

I'm starting to wonder if they're indigenous to an area of Mexico not well represented in Philly.

I had them a few years ago at Taqueria Veracruzana. They were delicious, but since it was a while ago, I'm not sure if they still have them.

Wikipedia says they are from Puebla, which is the region where most of our Mexicans come from. I have had them at Los Jalapenos (since moved and has become Tres Jalapenos) and they were good but I don't eat chile rellenos enough to have a strong opinion. They were definitely much better than some bad ones I had recently in OCMD.

I have seen them on the menu at other taquerias so I do think they are around. Trying them at Veracruzana if they have them is a good bet.

I love Veracruzana, but I haven't been in a while. I'll probably go there for lunch this week.

Thanks for the info! Much appreciated.
