Maria’s Portuguese Table has been picked up for nationwide distribution with PBS. The series takes viewers on a journey to discover the influence of Portuguese cuisine throughout the world, and how it has migrated and evolved along with generations of Portuguese immigrants.
The series will be made available to every PBS station starting in June. The presenting station for the series is WSBE Rhode Island PBS.
The first season of the show, eight 30-minute episodes, follows Lawton from the Azorean islands in the North Atlantic Ocean, to Portuguese communities across the United States.
Half of the inaugural season was shot on the island of Sao Miguel, Azores, and features the capital city of Ponta Delgada as well as many small, coastal villages throughout the island. The other half of the season takes viewers to both the East and West coasts of the United States, where Lawton finds Portuguese influences.
