This discussion on sopaipillas has whet my appetite, and
brought back fond memories of a pleasant evening spent gorging
myself on stacks of this delicious bread.  I was in Denver
in a mad millionaire's pink adobe Mexican restaurant/castle,
the first and only time I had them.  Does anyone know the
name of the place - it has a three-story waterfall, several
full-size theaters, an arcade, and so-so cheap food other than
the sopaipillas?  It's a fun place, in spite of the food.

Well, my local NJ Mexican restaurant - El Ranchero - also
has sopaipillas.  However, their version is a giant deep-
fried bread shell full of ice cream, honey and cinnamon.
It was good, but I prefer the first version better.
Since my local source isn't quite what I'd hoped for,
any recipes out there?
