Introduction

The patty is a handheld pastry that we both love and used to meet over coffee all the time. In Toronto, are they celebrated for any other reason than Toronto has a huge Jamaican population? It's also because of the 1985 dust step between the federal government's meat inspection agency and the owner of a small patty shop called Patty Palace. Join host Mark Fresnel as he picks one artifact and takes you on the wild, evocative, sometimes funny, and often tragic adventure of how it came to be.
