"The consume at Birria de Res Balbuena is a byproduct of the birria cooking process — but it is the best broth in the neighborhood. Rich with beef fat and toasted ancho and guajillo chiles, with a depth from the marrow bones that cook all day. Served as a soup with onion and cilantro. Worth ordering on its own."
