Inspired by a road trip that he made in the 1970's, the UK chef documents the food and culture from San Francisco in California down to Oaxaca in Mexico.
Rick heads east from Oaxaca to the Yucatan Peninisula where local people feast on the habanero chilli, bury and cook Pibil dishes below ground on hot rocks. He ends his trip eating grilled seafood in Tulum on the Caribbean coast.
