Trailer Synopsis

On this season of Pati’s Mexican Table, Pati explores Nuevo León, a sprawling northeastern border state draped in dazzling mountains and miles of desert. Defined by its sparse ingredients, proximity to the US border, and influences from Sephardic Jewish culinary roots, the flavors here are truly distinctive. And what Nuevo León lacks in ingredients, it makes up for with resourceful, creative people who are finding innovative ways to transform traditional flavors into familiar but exciting new experiences. This is the land of cabrito and carne asada. Multi-generational families all over the state gather at carne asadas weekly to share stories, connect, roast cabritos on fire spits and throw handmade flour tortillas directly onto the coals.

Luis Rivas is bringing all that flavor home with his BBQ restaurant Riv’s. Pati visits the restaurant to taste the difference between carne asada and ‘Texas-style’ BBQ. Then she visits his family’s orange grove where she learns about the “Orange Belt,” the nickname for this part of Mexico known for its orange exports.

Episode 7 : Cantina Culture and the Morning After?

Cantinas have historically been bars that act as men’s clubs where men come together to drink, eat and be merry. Or talk about their broken hearts.

Just watch out for their parrot, he bites. And about 10 minutes down the road in the town of Allende is another restaurant that uses traditional stews in their famous empalmes, or stacked tacos.

In between, she visits street-food vendors, open-air markets, and cultural landmarks in her childhood hometown of Mexico City.
