Paul Holllywood Eats....Mexico on Channel 4

[BrynCartwright]

Really enjoyed this series...never watched Bake Off but Paul's car and global food documentaries are very good..

Mexico looks just amazing...

Thanks for this, will have to catch it

His series on Japan was fantastic (I watched on Netflix but unsure if it was originally a C4 thing)

Local mexican food (and tequila) is to die for, I was lucky to do 14 days backpacking around the Mayan ruins

Sounds obvious but although the staples are nothing you havent heard of before (tacos, fajitas etc), you have to experience the real thing, mole is everything at meal time and range from blowing your head off to a sweetness overload.

The best meal I had was actually at this place

It's tucked away down a dirt track in Playa Del Carmen, the owner runs it as a means to fund social community projects to help troubled youth in the area.
