About this episode
Spoonie is doing a show about street food from around the world but keeps getting distracted by a delicious smell coming from outside her kitchen window. Can Spoonie stay focused long enough to get through her podcast? And will she ever get the chance to taste the street food she so desperately wants to try? Celebrity chef Pati Jinich shares her favorite Mexican street foods, and kid guest Gavi talks about the Malaysian curry puffs he loves making with his grandmother. Pati Jinich is the Emmy-nominated Mexican host and executive producer of both La Frontera , her PBS Primetime docuseries that reveals untold stories from the US-Mexico border and Pati’s Mexican Table, which has brought Mexican flavors into American homes for more than 10 years. A James Beard award-winning chef and former political analyst, Pati has made it her life’s work to build greater understanding between her two home countries: Mexico where she was born and the United States where she currently resides and is raising her family. In addition to her television work, she is a New York Times contributor and bestselling author with 3 cookbooks, including her most recent Treasures of the Mexican Table: Classic Recipes, Local Secrets.
