/Sounds like "mohn" (as in "more") + "DOHN" (as in "door") + "goh" (as in "go")/
A slow-cooked tripe soup made with beef stomach, spices, vegetables, and legumes. In Colombia and Venezuela it's a beloved weekend tradition, with prep that can start hours before the meal.
“The mondongo at the central market sells out before noon on Saturdays.”
“They started cooking the mondongo at dawn so it would be ready by lunch.”
/Sounds like "mohn" (as in "more") + "DOHN" (as in "door") + "goh" (as in "go")/
Tripe soup made from beef or pork intestines, a staple across Central America and the undisputed go-to hangover cure. After a rough night, mondongo is what people swear by to get back on their feet. Grandmothers across Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama make it with the confidence of someone who knows it works.
“After last night's bender I urgently need a mondongo.”
“Grandma's mondongo cures anything, there's no better medicine.”

Sapa
A gossipy, nosy woman who listens in on conversations that are none of her business and then tells everyone what she heard. In Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador, "sapa" is the female version of "sapo": always eavesdropping, never keeping a secret. If someone calls you sapa, they're telling you to mind your own business.
