In a delightful episode of Plateworthy, host Nyesha Arrington embarks on a culinary exploration through Sacramento, savoring the city's finest pizza and tacos. Her journey begins at the vibrant Midtown Farmers Market, where she immerses herself in the local flavors, sampling freshly prepared paella, juicy oranges, and a delectable peach cobbler topped with Thrifty's ice cream.
Next, Arrington visits Nixtaco, a restaurant run by Monterrey-native Patricio Wise, known for its chicharron-filled tacos. As she indulges in a variety of tacos and queso fundido, Arrington remarks, "This is something special," highlighting the unique culinary offerings.
Continuing her adventure, she stops at Majka Pizzeria and Bakery, where she collaborates with chef and owner Alex Sherry to roll out pizza dough. At Majka, the toppings change daily, reflecting the freshest seasonal ingredients available. This week, Sherry features broccoli rabe on his pizzas and prepares a simple yet elegant tagliatelle with Dungeness crab and leeks. "The beautiful thing is being able to showcase the farmers market; that's what Sacramento does best," she observes, praising the freshness of the ingredients.
