Guy Fieri is back on the road, and his appetite is bigger than ever. This Friday’s “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives” takes a culinary detour to “Specialty Spots” across the country, where the focus is on unique and sometimes unexpected dishes.
From an uncle-nephew team in Gainesville, Florida, perfecting the art of the fried chicken sandwich to a vegan twist on Mexican cuisine in Dallas, Texas, Fieri’s latest cross-country trek is all about discovering what makes these “greasy spoons” tick. He also stops in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where one spot is putting their own distinctive spin on the classic pot pie.
As always, Fieri engages with the staff and customers at each location, getting the inside scoop on the recipes and the stories behind the food. It’s a mix of classic diner fare and creative culinary surprises, demonstrating that sometimes, the best food is found in the most unassuming places. Tune in to the Food Network this Friday, May 2 at 9:00 PM ET for a taste of what’s cooking.
