The Patient (2022)
S09E03 Off the Beaten Path in Huatulco
Episode Overview
Most travelers to Mexico are drawn to its beautiful beaches, and it's easy to see why, especially at Huatulco’s Playa Chahué, which boasts a Playa Limpia certification for its cleanliness. However, Chef Rick Bayless believes there’s more to discover beyond the all-inclusive dining options. He takes us on an adventure to uncover delicious local cuisine and hidden beaches. Starting at Sabor de Oaxaca in La Crucecita, a favorite among locals, Rick savors Salsa de Huevo (omelets in salsa) before heading to Puerto Escondido for a delectable lunch of wood-fired grilled fish at Playa Principal. He then paddle-boards at Playa Carrizalillo, another breathtaking beach, before indulging in Encamaronadas (crispy, cheesy shrimp tacos).
