I have tried nice bolillos at Panam International, there is one on 14th st NW, corner with Parkway. I also like the ones they have at Shoppers… But I agree with you, they are not the same… however, you can ask in those stores at what time or which days they get or make them fresh, that’s your best bet! Also, you can give them a couple minutes in the toaster, to crunch them up a bit.
Last time I was in Michoacán I tried an unbelievable meat basted in a pasilla chile and tomatillo sauce. The woman who showed me how to make it, had your same name!!! I will post the recipe soon…

But where can you get some good bolillos in the DC area? Portuguese rolls or baguettes just don’t cut it…

So nice to find you in here! I miss you so… Ok you are the best ever torta maker (after Diana Kennedy… ) Remember those gigantic tortas we used to eat en Valle de Bravo?? With country style pate and a side of pickles? I am coming to visit just to get one of those…

It seems not to long ago I thought I was making the best tortas ever. Wrong… I always said there is something magical about the way you describe food, so my comment is small, since now I have the urge to go and make me a torta.
Congratulations!
Miki
