Eva Longoria: Searching for Mexico

In the jungles of Yucatan State, on the eastern edge of Mexico, Longoria explores the home of the ancient Maya, where a fierce pride in that ancestry still permeates every custom and dish, even in the most innovative kitchens.

Eva Longoria visits the northeastern state of Nuevo Leon, bordering her home state of Texas. As little grows there, and with meat on every menu, inventive and resourceful chefs transform simple ingredients into culinary delights.

Eva Longoria explores the port gateway between Mexico and the rest of the world, Veracruz, and discovers that in its people remains a defiant spirit, still evident in their character, music, and the bold flavors of their food.
