He ventures to Phoenix and explores the city’s Mexican influences, tasting fish tacos and chili from some of its best taquerias. Course by course, Todd will explore the province of Bologna and experiences traditional cuisine. Later, Todd discovers the breads that define New York City’s diverse ethnic neighborhoods — from the delicious naan of East 6th Street’s Indian restaurants to the classic bialy.
