WGBH Visits Casa Romero for New Series

is being featured in a new WGBH series called Neighborhood Kitchens, which goes behind the scenes at ethnic restaurants around the city.

The episolde explores Back Bay's first authentic Mexican restaurant in the city this Sunday at 6:30 p.m. on WGBH 2.

“Boston is so culturally diverse, and the culinary scene is no exception,” series producer Patricia Alvarado Núñez said in a release.  “We want to introduce people to the various foods and cuisine that are available to them – without a passport!”

The show takes viewers on a culinary tour of Boston’s neighborhoods, cooking with, and learning from, the influential chefs who have spent years perfecting cuisine from around the world and introducing it to the region. It shows how these ethnic restaurants have, in many ways, become the destination spots in their own neighborhoods, WGBH said.

A companion website will also feature full recipes, behind-the-scenes photos and stories from each episode, in-depth profiles on each of the chefs featured on the series, interactive boards for viewers to leave comments and recipes of their own, and more.

In addition to Sunday at 6:30pm on WGBH 2, it will air Fridays at 7:30pm on WGBH 44 and Saturdays at 4pm on WGBH 2.
