Guy Fieri’s back behind the wheel of his cherry-red Camaro, ready to uncover more hidden culinary gems in this week’s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Friday’s episode, “Tortas, Tomatoes and Tequila,” finds our bleach-blond gourmand traversing the country from San Antonio, Texas, to Brunswick, Georgia, in search of delicious bites and unique dining experiences.
First up, Fieri parks it in San Antonio at a Mexican eatery where the torta ahogada reigns supreme. This isn’t your average sandwich; we’re talking a symphony of flavors and textures, with every element made from scratch. And just when you think it can’t get any better, Fieri samples the restaurant’s al pastor tacos, further cementing San Antonio’s reputation as a taco lover’s paradise.
Next, Fieri heads east to Brunswick, Georgia, to visit a restaurant that’s putting a unique spin on Southern comfort food. This establishment seems to be a master of culinary fusion, serving up crispy fried chicken alongside Italian arancini. But the real kicker? The restaurant houses a secret speakeasy, where Fieri undoubtedly samples some creative cocktails. This segment begs the question: is there a food combination too strange for Guy Fieri to embrace? Given his track record, probably not.
So, if you’re looking for some culinary inspiration or simply want to live vicariously through Fieri’s gastronomic adventures, tune in to Food Network this Friday at 9:00 PM for a new episode of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.
