Pati's Mexican Table: Season 7, Episode 6

7 - 6: Loreto: Baja's Hidden Gem

One of Baja's most well kept secrets has Pati on a mission to explore this town bite-by-bite. Loreto is a small town on the Gulf of California with big excitement and a rich history. Loreto, a hidden gem, almost feels like a step back in time. Home to the oldest Mision in Baja California, Pati visits Mision de Nuestra Senora de Loreto to learn about Loreto's history. And she can't leave town without trying a dish that you can only get fresh in Baja – almejas chocolatas. These chocolate clams are indigenous to the area, and Pati will experience the traditional process of making tatemada-style clams on the beach. Pati also stumbles upon the unexpected – a true, traditional Italian pizza right in town – and she stops by SuperBurro, a favorite local joint with delicious food and a rich family history.
