This trip Guy's crossing the country for scratch cooking done right. In Philadelphia, a pub where they're deep-frying hand made empanadas loaded with a Philly favorite. In Spokane, a 1912 farmhouse turned restaurant throwing a spin on stuffed pork chops with goat cheese, pine nuts and sun dried tomatoes. And in Portland, Maine, an 80-year-old, waterfront joint where the lobster's boat-to-table fresh and served up on a house baked brioche.
Big Daddy knows how to serve up delicious brunch fare any time of day. He begins by making a savory Asparagus & Cheddar Quiche. Then, Big Daddy dishes up new versions of old school favorites: spicy Chicken Hash with Bell Peppers & Herbs and juicy Baked Tomatoes with Parsley & Parmesan. For a refreshing and invigorating delight, Big Daddy blends up a Coffee Frappe.
Guy Fieri's crossing the country for scratch cooking done right. In Philadelphia, a pub is deep-frying handmade empanadas loaded with a Philly favorite. In Spokane, Wash., a 1912 farmhouse-turned-restaurant is throwing a spin on stuffed pork chops with goat cheese, pine nuts and sun-dried tomatoes. Then in Portland, Maine, an 80-year-old waterfront joint is serving their lobsters boat-to-table fresh on a house baked brioche.
Guy fieri and two pint-sized sous chefs make lunch to-go, with juicy grilled chicken sandwich on pretzel baguette, stacked with slices of havarti cheese, tender bibb lettuce, and a generous smear of tangy citrus mustard. Fieri's farfalle features sunchokes, green onion, mozzarella, tomatoes, olives, and a red bell pepper-arugula pesto for a pasta salad that thinks outside of the lunchbox. Finally, mimi's granola bars, packed with healthy ingredients like oats, dried cherries, coconut, and peanut butter will rev energy levels all day long.
