I love two things about this series: 1. I learn about new food to crave 2. I get to see Mexico in all its colors, rather than Hollywood brown. It's so beautiful. It's so bright. I love it.

This series cinematically smoked Bon Appetit and Food 52.
Please keep this series. It has a beautiful charm that promotes gastronomy and history. This show has a simplistic design with modernistic tones, yet it still makes me feel like I'm home watching cooking shows with my mother. Thank you.
The colors. the atmosphere. And that guy at the marketplace who had a perfect elevator pitch.
I've been a fan of Rick's for a long time but he really showed his chef's chops today, especially in the bakery. I want to go back to Mexico.
The Pruébalo videos with Rick are a real feast for the eyes, mind & stomach.. The light in the filmography, the colours everything is just stunning. And the food! It really makes Mexican food accessible for someone like me who likes in rainy old Scotland where there's a dearth of Mexican food. Brilliant stuff, please keep it up, really enjoying them.

As someone born and raised in Guadalajara, that torta at the end looks tasty AF!
Using large food buckets instead of large bowls is genius. Also loving the painted fingernails across the BCU. Edit: I edit my comment to prevent folks making the erroneous assumption I did, that those were construction buckets. Thanks to other people pointing that out, I don't want anyone getting sick or misrepresenting those food places

The plastic used for construction buckets doesn't have to be safe for food contact. I would definitely try and get old pickle buckets or other food storage buckets if you are going to do this at home. That way you know the plastic selected was designed for food contact.

Food safe buckets seem like they'd make life a lot easier for people making food in bulk, my local bakery has 3 gallon buckets that they use for something (we got some they where getting rid of to use for aquariums) they are really robust buckets and it makes moving large amounts of things easier especially because depending on the size of bucket the weight of what you're carrying and how strong you are a person can carry multiple buckets a lot easier than you can carry multiple bowls
Rick's dog is the true star of this episode! Love all of this!!

Mexico and South America don’t get nearly enough recognition for their amazing food, culture, and history. The typical American’s view of Mexico is just tacos, tequila, crime, and deserts. I’m really glad to see more shows drawing attention to the foods that we don’t get exposed to
This series portraits so well Mexican gastronomy and culture. It's just amazing, you can tell the love and effort put into this. From a Mexican, I can say I love it. Keep it up!

I love adding choco(choko?) into the shoots that were adorable. The way this was kinda parsed out with the let's taste, let's learn, let's challenge was really fun and a lil staged but very natural. It was really fun and I like that some of the similar cuts that are used when filming with babish are pulled in when cooking with Rick.
I am loving this little slice of the world on a plate type of show! Rick is so calm as he tours and toys out all these amazing dishes! The cinematography is aces
I'm so excited about this show. I love getting a look into the traditions and food of mexico. Everything looks amazing and I always leave one of these videos starving. It's such a wonderful showcase! Thanks for sharing!!! Edit: also!!! The bread making montage was awesome. I could watch that on repeat forever
Shout out to Rick - thank you for presenting Mexico and it's delicious food to the world in such an awesome way!! We want to move to Mazatlán someday. Also love your nails!!! In the last episode They looked like Mexican ceramic tiles !! Of course shout out to Sebastian - this show is BEAUTIFUL!!! Production value, editing, graphics are top notch.
Wow, legit have been going to that mercado my whole life every time I’ve visit family in Mexico it’s nice to see it getting some recognition especially the tortas ahogadas, legit one of my favorite things to eat.
This is absolutely pure art. On every level. The production is so advanced, the shots are beautiful, the teaching portions so well explained. Every facet of this video shines with skill and professionalism.
This Pruébalo series is seriously the best addition to the BCU. Great editing and sound design and a wonderful look into Mexican cuisine.
I love how Andrew adopted all the other chefs onto his Chanel!
The cinematic value of this blows me away. It felt like I was watching an actual movie or something.
Ahhh!!! I just got nostalgic memories of going to Juan de Dios Market. My parents and family from Guadalajara would take us children there almost every weekend. I can still remember the wonderful smells of food. Loving these videos on different cultural cuisines ❤
