Stacked: enchiladas de mole negro (55 pesos, about $2.75 at the time). These were laden, like Luis and family's namesake hen soup, with long-cooked and flavorful meat from mature female chickens, and distinguished by an exceptional chile-chocolate sauce that disdained any sweetness. Half of this hefty order served as a late-night snack, the other half, as a morning-after restorative.
