Pati's Mexican Table - Season 2

Season 2

Season Two opens with Pati in a Lucha Libre (Mexican wrestling) ring, launching into a premier episode on dishes that have provoked food debates over the years, such as “red vs. green enchilada sauce” or “polvorones vs. Mexican wedding cookies.” This begins a season where Pati takes a much deeper look into the nuances of Mexican cuisine. Her main destination is the state of Puebla, one of Mexico’s main culinary hubs. A journey through its colonial capital takes us to the birthplace of many of Mexico’s most iconic dishes. Pati also goes back to Mexico City to visit the legendary floating gardens of Xochimilco, which leads to learning about the Mexican art of cooking with flowers. This season also welcomes a select group of special guests, including superstars of both modern and traditional Mexican cuisine.

Wild Cards

Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
