I got this image online, but it's pretty representative of the sopapillas we've had at various restaurants.
It seems that every region has their "thing" they serve with a meal. In the south it might be biscuits or fritters. In the Midwest it's dinner rolls or a fancy bread basket. In new Mexico, it's Sopapillas. Essentially it's a piece of fried dough that puffs up so that if you tear the edge, it creates a big pocket into which you can pour honey (usually served in a squeeze bottle like ketchup). Mostly the Sopapillas don't have a ton of flavor, but they are a great vehicle for getting your honey fix.
