On DDD, Guy has seen it all, and he has the scoop on the some of the wackiest and wildest joints out there, like R&R Taqueria serving up real deal tacos out of a gas station, the church turned brewpub servin' up a divine Lobster Mac 'n Cheese at Clarkston Union, the silver bullet food truck on the Fisherman's Wharf cranking out seafood fries at Fresh, Local, Wild, and the boxing gym dishin' out scratch-made comfort food at The Duce. It gets even more ridiculous at the Taco Bus, a real deal bus pulling out all the stops on Mexican food, and the funky dj-slash-breakfast-food spot housed in a basement putting their spin on waffles at Funk 'n Waffles. These joints may be wacky, but the food is off the chain.
Things get hot for Duff Goldman and his crew as they create a fire-shooting Mexican fiesta cake for hot sauce giant Tapatio and a towering cookie cake for a Los Angeles convention. The gang must turn up the heat in the bakery to make tons of realistic food items out of sugar, plus Duff tries to put fire inside the cake and fellow baker Ron Ben-Israel shows up to join the fun!
This trip, Guy Fieri's diggin' into the unexpected! In Black Mountain, N.C., a one-of-a-kind South African spot is puttin' out a funky farmhouse sausage platter and lights-out lamb curry. There's real-deal Mexican street food in San Jose, Calif., bringin' big flavor to beef barbacoa and top-notch chili relleno burritos. And a Boynton Beach, Fla., joint is servin' cheffed-up eats, like their pork jowl fried rice and chicken oysters.
Guy Fieri does takeout in Triple-D style, combining great restaurant food with cooking at home. Four DDD alums send ingredients for their most-dynamite recipes then join Guy and his son, Hunter, via video chat to cook up all that flavor. The menu includes a Chinese-Mexican mix from Phoenix, Florida alligator fritters, a creole meatloaf straight from a California beach and chicken wings from one of Guy's favorite hometown spots.
Guy Fieri rolls out to some great places where the recipes really do come from mama: The St. Louis landmark where a former backup singer for Ike and Tina Turner is dishing up real deal soul food; the Mexican restaurant in a Phoenix gas station where everything's authentic, from the carne asada to the home-made menudo; and the Kentucky truck stop with real country cookin' -- and home made biscuits come with just about anything.
This trip, some of Guy's favorites are totally homemade from coast to coast. In N.Y., a real deal chef is crankin' out homemade pretzels with a special beer cheese sauce. In Vancouver, British Columbia, the butcher shop turned bakery and diner is servin' up standards like burgers and turkey pot pie. And in Santa Barbara, Calif., the family-run joint scratch makin' authentic Mexican food, like carnitas with red salsa and pozole with homemade tortillas.
