Guy Fieri is at it again, this time igniting a culinary clash of titans: Los Angeles vs. San Francisco. In the latest installment of “Guy’s Grocery Games,” two chef duos representing each city go head-to-head in a three-round cook-off for Flavortown supremacy. And of course, there are twists.
The first two rounds—a 15-minute cold appetizer challenge and a 30-minute hot appetizer sprint—demand both speed and creativity, forcing chefs to incorporate iconic ingredients from their respective cities. Think sourdough for San Francisco, maybe some avocado toast action for LA (just kidding…unless?). Then things get really interesting. The final entrée round gets a football-themed twist. A good old-fashioned gridiron game decides just how many ingredients each team can use for their regional masterpiece. It’s a high-stakes culinary gamble where strategy is as important as skill.
The winning team scores not just bragging rights, but a cool $15,000 and the coveted title of Golden State food champions. With Fieri’s signature brand of high-energy hosting, “City Food Fight” might just be the perfect midweek escape.
“Guy’s Grocery Games: City Food Fight: Los Angeles vs. San Francisco” airs Wednesday, February 5, 2025, on Food Network.
