And now a love letter, green and red mole, with rice and black beans, just perfect. Not my cooking this time

Yum! If you happen to live in or near LA we have a huge mole festival every year with a ton of food to try

Here you go. It’s usually at the park next to city hall.

Yeah go check it out! Our family has been the past two years and will probably go again. The only downside is that it’s usually really hot. They havea good variety of mole stuff though

Are you in LA? Come it’s pretty awesome.

u/PlayDontObserve 4d ago
I think I will be there

It’s a huge festival and yet I feel like nobody knows it out here!

u/PlayDontObserve 4d ago
45,0000+ people last year and I didn't know this existed until you shared it.

Don’t feel bad. I lived here for 5 years before I “discovered” it. Somehow a crazy amount of people go every year and yet I feel like most people have never heard of it

Looks good. It also looks like you’re at a nice event like a wedding or something else. Enjoy!

Looks delicious. Funny enough when I eat mole, I only want to pair it with white rice.

u/Mariah_again 5d ago
It was delicious, and why white rice? It’s a taste thing or just a no reason preference?

u/Olderbutnotdead619 5d ago
I don't want any other flavors messing with perfection

that's how I feel about curries ; I love the way the white rice soaks up all the flavor

In the top five dishes of all time. The first time I tried it it took my heart right out.

Wow, preparing two moles for one meal is not easy. Is there anything in the mole verde, or is it just the mole itself?
